Curry’s campaign was derailed on January 30 when he left a game against the Detroit Pistons after 25 minutes with what was described as runner’s knee. He missed a substantial stretch, sitting out 27 straight games and returning for only a handful of regular-season contests before the postseason approached.
The Warriors announced that surgery was not necessary, and Curry’s recovery plan centered on rest and rehab. He indicated there are still proactive steps he can take to prepare for next season, emphasizing maintenance and a cautious approach to his knee as the team looks ahead.
Team updates followed with Curry providing a positive outlook after the final regular-season game. He dispelled retirement talk and expressed confidence that he has more seasons left to contribute, underscoring his intention to return next year despite the injury-filled campaign.
Curry finished the year with 43 appearances, posting 46.8% shooting from the floor and 39.3% from three-point range. He averaged 26.6 points per game, along with 3.6 rebounds, 4.7 assists, and 1.1 steals, highlighting the ongoing impact he still brings when available.
Looking ahead, Curry’s health will remain central to the Warriors’ plans as they map out the offseason and roster strategy. While rest and rehab are the focus in the near term, the franchise will also assess improvements around Curry to maximize his production and sustain competitive success in the coming seasons.
