Curry went to the locker room briefly but later returned to the bench. He checked back into the game with 7:31 remaining in the first quarter. He only missed about three minutes of game time.
The Warriors have been struggling since Kevin Durant’s knee injury and even lost three in a row at one point. The Dubs would have been in major trouble if Curry’s ankle injury were serious.
