The Golden State Warriors got fairly good news on the status of Stephen Curry on Saturday.
According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Curry has a Grade 2 MCL sprain, and will be re-evaluated in three weeks. If that checks out okay, there is a chance he could return around the start of the playoffs.

This is a similar injury to 2016 for Curry, an MCL sprain that cost him approximately two weeks beginning with Game 4 of a first-round series with Houston. https://t.co/sYb14tDXNK

All in all, this is decent news for Golden State. The injury doesn’t sound particularly serious despite Friday’s major scare, and if he’s not ready for the start of the postseason, it sounds like he should be back pretty soon after they start.
