Stephen Curry underwent a pelvic bruise, but an MRI did not show any structural damage after a bad fall Thursday evening against the Raptors, the Golden State Warriors announced on Friday. Curry does not travel with the team in Atlanta for a match against the Hawks on Saturday, and it will be reassessed on Monday.

The Warriors are on the road for their next six games and after Atlanta will face Miami on Tuesday – it is difficult to imagine that Curry was released on Monday and doing a cross -country flight to play Tuesday – then the Pelicans of New Orleans on Friday.
The injury occurred in the third quarter against Toronto when Curry led the way and was struck while he was passing under the basket, having the NBA goalkeeper landed on the back.
Warriors cannot afford to be curry without a long time. Golden State is sixth in the West – currently avoiding the game – but two hot teams in the Timberwolves and the Clippers are only 1.5 games with a dozen games to play.
Curry is on average 24.2 points and 6 assists this season – up to 28.1 points and a match for 18 games before Thursday. During the season, the Warriors surpass the opponents of 1 point for 100 possessions (almost even) when Curry is on the ground, and if it lacks time, it will put more pressure on Jimmy Butler and Jonathan Kuminga (simply back from injury) to wear offensive load.
