How long will Stephen Curry be out after his shoulder injury against the Pacers? Hard to say. It will be a minimum of two weeks as the Warriors point guard is relieved by the MRI results.
“At the level of the shoulder, each time we can avoid the operation, it’s good news” he lets go. “The process is trying to figure out how to take the pain away quickly, and regain strength. What’s interesting is that it’s a first for me so it usually takes longer than if it’s recurring. You have to trust the plan put in place and I will have to do the necessary work. »
If the two-time MVP is only out for two weeks, it would be a lesser evil for Golden State. Because the defending champions, already in difficulty since they are in 10th place in the Western Conference (14 wins – 15 losses), will have to grit their teeth in the absence of their offensive leader, the only player at his true level since recovery.
“Each team goes through periods like this during the season, with injuries, with starters or major players who are absent. We have to find solutions to remain efficient and accept the challenge.” recalls Stephen Curry. “I have confidence in the guys present to find solutions. »
Because for the leader, who is betting on a big final sprint from his team, we must not collapse.
“It’s an important moment because you have to maintain the positivity and the belief in what you’re doing. Just to give us a chance to finish the year strong, going all the way to the All-Star Break to start the home stretch knowing that no team from the West has come away yet” he concludes.
