Stephen Curry was ruled out of the Golden State Warriors’ Wednesday night matchup in Houston after injuring his right abdomen in the first quarter of the game against the Rockets.
Curry, the Warriors’ leading scorer and two‑time NBA Most Valuable Player, suffered the injury early in the first period and was unable to continue. Team officials confirmed that the injury was to his right abdomen, and medical staff determined he would not be able to play for the remainder of the contest.
The Warriors were scheduled to face the Houston Rockets in a regular‑season game that had been highly anticipated by fans, given Curry’s status as one of the league’s most prolific shooters and the team’s reliance on his offensive production.
With Curry out, Golden State will have to adjust its lineup and strategy for the remainder of the game. The absence of the star guard is expected to impact the Warriors’ offensive output and defensive presence on the court.
Team officials have not yet provided a prognosis for Curry’s recovery, but the injury is expected to sideline him for at least the rest of the current game and potentially affect his availability for upcoming contests.
