Steph Curry’s name doesn’t feature on the Golden State Warriors’ injury report for their road game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday. This will be the team’s penultimate game before closing out the regular season with a home game against the LA Clippers on Sunday.

The Warriors need to win both games to guarantee a top-six seed, and that journey begins against Portland. As Curry’s name isn't present in the injury report, he should play barring any last-minute injury.

Golden State got as close as securing a top-three spot, but a 1-2 run in the past two games have dashed the team’s hopes of making it to the top three. The Warriors are sixth in the West with a 47-33 record.

They are coming off of a heartbreaking 114-111 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday as they were at the receiving end of a buzzer-beating 3-pointer from Harrison Barnes.

Steph Curry had a great game, though, with 30 points, eight rebounds, three assists and two steals. The four-time NBA champion needs to keep his good form going against the Trail Blazers who are out of playoff contention.

While Curry should play, the Warriors could be without Quinten Post (illness) and Gary Payton II (knee injury), as both are listed as questionable.
