Stephen Curry Questionable Thursday
Stephen Curry (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against Detroit. He's dealing with inflammation in his left knee and may be out for the second time in four games. Curry has sat out a game in each of the last three back-to-back situations for the Warriors, so we likely won't see him on Thursday or in Friday's matchup against Indiana. Dennis Schroder's (hip) fantasy stock would receive a boost with Curry's absence, but he is also listed as questionable for Thursday.

Stephen Curry To Undergo An MRI Wednesday
Stephen Curry (hamstring) will undergo an MRI on Wednesday and is considered day-to-day by the team, ESPN's Ohm Youngmisuk reports. The veteran superstar injured his left hamstring in Tuesday's Game 1 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. After the game, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr sounded pessimistic about Curry's chances of playing in Game 2 on Thursday night. "We don't know yet," Kerr said. "But with a hamstring, it's hard to imagine that he would play Thursday." Curry's injury is a tough pill to swallow, but the Warriors proved on Tuesday that they can cope without him. Jimmy Butler III and Buddy Hield spearheaded the offense in Curry's absence. Meanwhile, the situation provides Brandin Podziemski and Gary Payton II with more playing opportunities.

Stephen Curry Held To 13 Points Wednesday Night
Stephen Curry produced only 13 points as the team failed to finish off the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night, losing Game 5 131-116 on the road. Curry and Jimmy Butler III both had zero points after the first quarter, as the Warriors struggled to cope with Houston's high-intensity defense. The two superstars ended up combining for 21 points in the game, with Curry shooting 4-for-12 from the field and 3-for-9 from behind the arc. He had seven assists with three turnovers and grabbed three rebounds in 23 minutes. Golden State's starters were embarrassed on Wednesday, and we should see a reaction from them in Game 6 on home court Friday night.

Stephen Curry Expected To Play Friday
Stephen Curry (pelvis) is expected to play against the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday. The veteran has missed the last two games after suffering a pelvic contusion in a recent win over the Toronto Raptors. Curry has appeared in 10 games during March while posting averages of 25.0 points, 6.1 assists, 4.1 three-pointers, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.1 steals across 32.8 minutes per game. For fantasy managers, the superstar guard is a must-start anytime he is available to suit up.

Stephen Curry Questionable Against The Pels
Stephen Curry (pelvis) is questionable for Friday's game in New Orleans. The veteran has missed the last two games after suffering a pelvic contusion in a recent win over the Toronto Raptors. Brandin Podziemski has been handling most of the duties at the one, with the 22-year-old most recently amassing 14 points and two steals in Tuesday's loss to the Miami Heat. If Curry remains sidelined, Podziemski, Jimmy Butler III, Jonathan Kuminga, and Draymond Green should benefit the most offensively, although there's room for added production from Moses Moody and Buddy Hield.
