“This season is over” was amongst the most repeated fan remarks after news broke that Stephen Curry and Draymond Green had been sidelined. Amidst the Warriors’ 5-game loss streak, the upcoming matchup against the Rockets would have provided the perfect opportunity to break that poor run. After all, Steph and Co. do hold a 10-0 record against the Houston side. However, with the Splash Bro being declared ‘out’ on the injury report due to a bilateral knee ailment, and Green due to a calf injury, the odds were reduced against the Bay Area. Fortunately, there is some hope on the horizon for the upcoming games.
It can be said for sure that Stephen Curry and Draymond Green won’t be present to take on the Rockets. However, according to NBA reporter Anthony Slater, Steve Kerr has now confirmed that it is “possible” for Steph Curry to play in the upcoming game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. On top of that, even Draymond Green’s availability is “possible”. This report came after Anthony Slater also reported that the MRI done on the power forward came out clean.
To add to the good news, Andrew Wiggins is reportedly set to appear against the Rockets today! Earlier listed as questionable again because of a right ankle impingement, his health seems to be good enough now. In light of these updates, NBA fans couldn’t stay silent for long.
How did NBA Fans react to the update about Stephen Curry and co?
One social media user, filled with hope, ended up writing “Yes ! Warriors forever !”
The Bay Area hasn’t been too successful in living up to its fan expectations over the last couple of games. After all, despite a good start to the season, the recent streak of losses resulted in the record going down.
