On January 19, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season was in full swing. In a focus game today, the Warriors beat the Pistons 102-86 at home. The two teams were ranked very differently, and the Warriors quickly took the lead, leading by 34 points at most to achieve a big win.
However, although the Warriors won today, Curry's injury has made fans feel sad. Curry played only 28 minutes today, shooting 6-of-11, including 4-of-8 from three-point range and 2-of-2 from the free throw line, for a total of 18 points, 3 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals, with plus or minus of +21. At the end of the third quarter, Curry's finger was poked, and he returned to the locker room for a brief treatment, and considering the Warriors' big lead, Curry did not play again after returning to the arena.
Looking back at this round, the Warriors organized the offense at that time. Payton serves at the top of the arc, Curry has been trying to get rid of the Pistons' defense, seeing that his teammates are having difficulty keeping up with Curry, forming a misplaced Stuart close to Curry. After Curry went around, Payton sent the ball out. Perhaps because of inadequate preparation, Curry poked the basketball directly with the index finger of his left hand when he received the ball.
Then Curry has been desperately shaking his left hand, trying to get rid of the pain, and his expression is very painful. Curry was then substituted and briefly returned to the dressing room. After returning to the court, Curry kept an ice pack around his left hand and wrapped it in tape.
It should be noted that Curry suffered a finger injury during the Warriors' victory over the Bulls on January 15, for which he also missed the game against the Timberwolves. Now that the schedule is halfway through, it is hoped that all players, including Curry, will try to avoid injuries.
