Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has been diagnosed with a sprained ligament in his left foot after undergoing an MRI and he will be re-evaluated in two weeks, the team announced today.

X-rays after the Warriors' game against the Boston Celtics on Wednesday reportedly did not reveal any fractures or significant structural damage. Curry will see specialists, and there is optimism that he will be available when the playoffs begin, according to ESPN.
Late in the second quarter at Chase Center, Marcus Smart collided with Curry as the Celtics guard dove on the floor for a loose ball. Curry had to check out of the game and did not return.
Only 12 regular-season games remain for the Warriors, and they wanted to use the final few weeks to solidify their rotation and find a rhythm heading into the playoffs.
Klay Thompson didn't make his debut until January and Draymond Green recently returned from an absence that lasted more than two months, so Curry has played a total of 11 minutes this season with both of them by his side.
Golden State is third in the Western Conference (47-23).
In the 2021-22 season Curry played in 64 games, averaging 25.5 points, and 6.3 assists
