On January 16, Beijing time, according to Warriors reporter Anthony Slater, Curry will miss tomorrow's away game against the Timberwolves due to a right hand injury. In addition to Curry, Green will also continue to truce. Payton II's promotion to play is doubtful (50% chance of playing), and Thompson, who was on leave from the last round, will return tomorrow's game.
Slater then revealed that Curry's right hand was injured. With 9 minutes and 11 seconds left in the second quarter against the Bulls, Curry broke through to the basket, his right hand collided with the ball brother's body, and after falling to the ground, Curry covered his right hand with a painful face. Still, he stuck with the three quarters, with the Warriors eventually beating the Bulls by 42 points, with Curry scoring 19 points.
After yesterday's game, Curry also talked about his injured right hand, saying: "As long as my hand touches the ground, I will feel worried. It hurt a lot, but I'll be fine. A few years ago, I suffered a severe hand injury (fracture of the left palm bone) that left me with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Curry said the initial examination of his right hand was not a big problem. So far this season, Curry has played in 39 games, averaging 26.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6 assists per game, which will be the fourth game he has missed. The Warriors won 1 and lost 2 of their first 3 games. Medical experts say that sore hand pain generally recovers in 3-5 days.
The Warriors' suspension of Curry should also be out of caution. Thompson will return against the Timberwolves, Curry is sidelined, and Thompson is expected to get more shots, after Kerr also said Thompson's playing time would increase to 24 minutes.
