The Warriors confirmed the injury after Curry exited Wednesday's loss to Houston early and will be re-evaluated in two weeks.
Stephen Curry has an oblique abdominal tear and will be out for at least two weeks, the Warriors confirmed Thursday following an MRI. He will be re-evaluated after that period to determine next steps.
The injury happened during Wednesday's loss to Houston, when Curry left the game with 6:25 remaining in the first quarter and did not return.
The timing stings. Curry had been on a hot stretch heading into the injury, scoring 34, 29, 41 and 25 points over his last four games before going down. Now Golden State has to navigate at least a couple weeks without its best player, with no clear word yet on whether two weeks will be the final answer or just the first checkpoint.
