Though Stephen Curry has not played for a while, with his shoulder injury holding him back, the leader has been seen on multiple occasions cheering for his team from the sidelines. The Golden State Warriors are slowly, but surely, climbing the ladder of the Western Conference. Their record of 20-18 places them as the seventh seed. In tonight’s game against the Detroit Pistons (10-30), Curry was present along with his teammate Andre Iguodala.
A 24-year-old Warriors star impressed both the players so much, almost as if they were taken aback by the play.

Head coach, Steve Kerr, informed that the veteran would be needed for the “back half of the season”. That game is slotted to be on 10 January. But Kerr has been vague about a specific date. The forward has not played in a single game this season due to a hip injury. However, his 19 years of experience have helped him be an “extension of the team’s coaching staff“.
The franchise, however, has given the NBA world a possible date for Stephen Curry’s return. The Golden State Warriors GM Bob Myers hoped that the NBA champion would be back on his feet and back on the court by January 13. The date also marks the first game on their 5 game road trip.
