Stephen Curry will miss Wednesday’s game for the Golden State Warriors against the Sacramento Kings due to a lingering cold. Steve Kerr made the decision after the Warriors’ 118-107 win over the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday. Curry scored 28 points in 33 minutes and was coughing during his postgame press conference.
“He’s wiped out right now,” Kerr said. “I don’t care what the doctors say, we got to get him some rest. I’ll make the decision right now, he’s not gonna play (Wednesday). He needs some rest. He’s been sick. All the travel, everything, it’s just caught up to him. So hopefully getting some rest and hopefully he’ll be ready to go for Denver.”
Curry shot 9-for-23 in the game for the Warriors.
“The second half, the tank was on E,” Curry admitted. “I was just trying to dig deep, especially in the second half to get through the game,” Curry said. “Knowing Jimmy was out too. It was a battle out there, but thankfully we got it done.”
