Stephen Curry gave fans hope said he will return before…..
When Stephen Curry went down with a left foot sprain last Wednesday, the Golden State Warriors knew they had a difficult final stretch to the regular season.
They expected some bumps in the road — their entire system is built around Curry. Coach Steve Kerr said it’s like a “domino effect” when he’s out of the lineup.
But, they’ve now dropped three games in a row — most recently a 94-90 loss to the Orlando Magic on Tuesday night — and are 2-6 without Curry this season. The concern level is growing.
“I think we’re playing soft,” Draymond Green said after the loss to the Magic. “We’re playing stupid. We’re just not playing good basketball and we’re getting punked. It’s hard to win a game getting punked. So that’s where we are right now.”

The Warriors scored just 16 points in the final quarter against the Magic. But it wasn’t just that period that cost them the game.
Green, along with Kerr, rattled off a laundry list of things Golden State didn’t do well — fouling 3-point shooters, setting illegal screens, being late on switches. The common denominator, they said, is that the Warriors’ execution has been poor.
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry believes he’ll be back by Game 1 of the 2022 NBA Playoffs. Curry is currently out with a sprained left foot. He was injured in a game against the Boston Celtics last week.

When asked about his recovery and return, Curry said “I’m an optimist.”
Curry is currently wearing a walking boot and has a noticeable limp. Still, he said he’s improving and feeling better each day.
