Curry Sidelined Friday with Ankle Injury, Coach Kerr Hopeful for Saturday Return

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry missed Friday's game against the Thunder due to an ankle injury and is questionable for Saturday's matchup versus Utah. Head coach Steve Kerr expressed hope that Curry will be able to play in the second leg of the back-to-back set. His absence, along with Draymond Green (rest) and Jimmy Butler (illness), left the Warriors without key players. In December, Curry averaged 30.1 points, 4.8 assists, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.0 steals across 33.6 minutes over nine appearances.
