Mandatory Credit: David Gonzales-Imagn Images The Golden State Warriors on Sunday said Stephen Curry will miss the next five games before his right knee injury is re-evaluated.
Curry, who hasn't played since Jan. 30, is officially out for Monday's home game against the Los Angeles Clippers with "right patellofemoral pain syndrome," also called "runner's knee." It's an overuse condition that is marked by pain around the kneecap.
In addition to the Clippers game, Curry will miss the Warriors' three-game road trip to Houston, Oklahoma City and Utah and a home game against Chicago on March 10. The soonest he could be back is March 13 against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Warriors have said Curry is making progress but is not doing work on the court yet.
Golden State (31-29) is in eighth place in the Western Conference and just 4-6 in the games Curry has missed before and after the All-Star break. The Los Angeles Lakers beat the Warriors 129-101 on Saturday.
