Stephen Curry remains sidelined for Memphis’ clash

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry will be out from the home game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday to manage bilateral knee pain akin to tendinitis. Golden State have two back-to-back games and Curry remains out from the first game.

The veteran guard has missed three games with a sprained left ankle and three games because of the nags to his knees. Meanwhile, the Golden State are 4-2 this season without Steph Curry.

Steph Curry is out tomorrow against the Grizzlies. Managing that knee tendinitis. Front side of a weekend back-to-back. That should clear him for Sunday vs the Kings. Brandin Podziemski remains out.
