Key points
  • An MRI showed that Curry had suffered an oblique abdominal tear, and the official statement from the Warriors claimed that he will be reevaluated in two weeks.
  • Now, the Warriors will be without him for at least the next two weeks, which means he will miss a minimum of six games in that period.
  • That could be a huge blow for Golden State, and DeMarcus Cousins believes it could even have a big impact on their season.

Additional details
  • From a team that was top-three, top-four, five in the West, you could easily see them drop down to the 9th or 10th seed.” Curry’s absence will increase the pressure on the other players on the roster, like Yaxel Lendeborg.
  • The 38-year-old has averaged nearly 28 points per game this season and has produced multiple incredible performances for the Warriors.
  • The rookie has been unbelievable so far, but if he can fill Curry’s void until his return, Lendeborg will be viewed very differently.
  • Obviously, him going down is going to change the look of the Warriors.
  • This is part of the issue I had with how they built this team.
