Trending
The injury occurred as he drove towards the basket, navigating around a screen set by Kevon Looney, with Jaden McDaniels in pursuit. Despite getting a shot off, the combination of McDaniels' momentum and Rudy Gobert's presence at the rim led to Curry injuring his knee.
At the start of the season, Steph was also dealing with a foot injury, which meant that he was included in the injury report. Nevertheless, he continued to play through the injury.
At the age of 35, Steph has demonstrated impressive consistency, playing 52 of the Warriors' 55 games.
Steph Curry stats vs. Denver Nuggets
In 43 games the two-time MVP has played against the Denver Nuggets, he has gone 19-24. He has averaged 24.0 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.8 assists, including a career-high 51 points, 11 rebounds, 13 assists and 10 3-pointers.
This season, he has averaged 23.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists with a steal and 0.6 blocks on 38.8% shooting, including 37.0% from the 3-point line. Curry's unparalleled ball-handling and shooting prowess consistently challenge opposing defenses, creating opportunities for teammates.
His knack for attracting defensive focus often results in a four-on-three advantage for the Warriors. Defenders frequently resort to aggressively double-teaming him off pick-and-rolls or during handoffs.
The Warriors are anticipated to involve him in as many pick and rolls with Nikola Jokic, targetting him. That will depend on how coach Michael Malone chooses to defend him, either by hedging him with the primary defender to give up the ball early or get Jokic to come up high to avoid the 3-point onslaught.
