SAN FRANCISO -- Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry will not make the upcoming road trip to Philadelphia, Cleveland and Chicago because of a left thigh contusion, extending his absence at least three more games.
Curry was set for an official re-evaluation on Thursday, but Warriors coach Steve Kerr got in front of the update. He called Curry a "long shot" to return by the weekend, so Kerr, Curry and Rick Celebrini, the franchise's lead medical decision-maker, opted to leave him back in the Bay Area for treatment.
