Steph Curry Officially Ruled Out for Warriors' Game Against Jazz

28 Jan 2025, 8:32 PM ET — 1 min read

In a significant update for Golden State Warriors fans, star guard Steph Curry has been officially ruled out for the upcoming game against the Utah Jazz on January 28, 2025. This decision comes as Curry continues to manage bilateral knee tendinitis, which has influenced his availability during back-to-back game scenarios this season. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr announced that resting Curry was a precautionary measure as the team faces a tight schedule, including three games in the span of four nights.

Curry was listed as questionable shortly before the game, but his knees began to flare up, leading the coaching staff to proceed cautiously. The Warriors are aware of Curry's impact on their performance, but with his current condition, they opted for a safer strategy to ensure his health moving forward. Notably, the Warriors have performed reasonably well without him this season, recording a 5-3 record in games where he did not play.

In addition to Curry, the Warriors will also be without forward Draymond Green, who is sidelined with a calf injury, and Jonathan Kuminga, who is out due to an ankle sprain. The game against the Jazz will take place at 10:00 PM ET, and it is part of a critical back-to-back set for the Warriors.

Injury Status Summary

Steph Curry: Out (bilateral knee tendinitis)
Draymond Green: Out (calf strain)
Jonathan Kuminga: Out (ankle sprain)
