Warriors Injury Update: Will Stephen Curry Play Back-to-Back Games Against the Pistons?

The Cleveland Cavaliers snapped the Golden State Warriors’ five-game winning streak by winning 115-104. The Cavaliers secured their first victory against the Golden State Warriors since the 2017 NBA Finals. However, the Warriors started the season in a promising fashion and would look to bounce back quickly. The Dubs don’t have much time, as they face the Pistons later tonight.

Fans are left to wonder if Stephen Curry will be in the starting lineup against the Pistons, especially since he logged 31 minutes against the Cavs yesterday. With Curry now 35 years old, resting him might be the best option for the Warriors, but will they?

Will Stephen Curry play tonight?

The Warriors have looked like a real title contender in the early weeks of the NBA. After losing to the Suns in their first game, they went on a five-game winning streak before losing to the Cavs. They play the Pistons later tonight, their second match in two consecutive nights. The Warriors aim to recover with a victory against Detroit. In the NBA, there are no straightforward games, so Steve Kerr plans to field a formidable lineup against the Pistons.

According to Shayna Rubin of Mercury News, “The Warriors will play their veterans against Pistons on the back end of the back-to-back, Kerr says.” This means that Steph, Klay, and Draymond will all likely start the game. Kerr has to manage the minutes of Steph Curry because he is essential for the Warriors’ success this season. “Father Time” hasn’t slowed down Steph, as he has averaged 30.4 points and 4.3 assists in seven games. The Warriors will probably start the game with Steph Curry, Chris Paul, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Kevon Looney.
