During their matchup against the Boston Celtics, Curry left the court during the second quarter after he faced a bad foul. Coach Steve Kerr showed his displeasure at the bad challenge by Marcus Smart. He said, “I thought it was a dangerous play. I thought Marcus dove into Steph’s knee.”

This comes as an enormous setback for the team. Curry has been phenomenal for the Warriors, putting up MVP level numbers for them. He averages 25.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 6.3 assists.

Moreover, this comes just 48hrs after the Big Three of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green played together after around 1,005 days.
