This will put the star guard at risk of missing out on the postseason awards, given that he’s already missed 15 games this season. If he misses three more games, including tonight, he’ll be ineligible for All-NBA honors.

While the awards implications can wait, Curry’s absence could spell disaster for the Dubs tonight. Especially with how hard-hit the franchise is by injuries right now.

Golden State Warriors injury report

Curry isn’t the only major absence, as Kristaps Porzingis and Jimmy Butler will also miss the game. Porzingis has been ruled out tonight with an Achilles injury, Butler has been ruled out for the rest of the season because of a torn ACL.

To make matters worse, the Warriors will also be without Seth Curry. The veteran sharpshooter has been sidelined for this game because of a back issue he’s been struggling with for quite some time now.

Meanwhile, the Warriors’ young guard L.J. Cryer will also be out for this game because of a hamstring injury. This list could grow even further with Will Richard and De’Anthony Melton both being questionable because of a bruised knee and left gluteal contusion, respectively.

San Antonio Spurs injury report

As for the Spurs, they also have their fair share of injury troubles ahead of this game. Lindy Waters III and David Jones Garcia will both miss tonight’s game for the Spurs. On one hand, Waters III will be on the bench because of a knee injury.

On the other hand, Garcia has been ruled out because of an ankle injury for the rest of the 2025-26 season. Despite these two injuries, perhaps the biggest blow for the Spurs could be the absence of Stephon Castle, who exited Tuesday’s game against the Lakers with an injury.

The 21-year-old has been instrumental for his team thus far, averaging 16.7 points, 7.0 assists, and 5.1 rebounds this season. So, not having him could be a massive blow for the franchise, as his availability hangs in the balance for now. So, how would the Spurs’ starting five look?

Predicted lineups for the Warriors vs the Spurs

Here’s how the Golden State Warriors could start without Stephen Curry:

And here’s how the San Antonio Spurs’ starting five could look:

With both teams dealing with injuries, these projected lineups highlight just how shorthanded each side will be. While Stephen Curry won’t be taking the court, it will be interesting to see how the Dubs fare without him against top-class opponents like the Spurs. Will they be able to get a win? Only time will tell, as we await the tip-off for this highly anticipated clash.
