The Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has revealed that he is still unsure as to when he will return from injury. The star point guard has been rehabilitating from a left lower leg injury that he incurred on February 4.
Curry was injured during the Warriors’ 113-119 win over the Dallas Mavericks when his knee collided with that of Dallas Mavericks point guard McKinley Wright IV. As a result, he partially tore his superior tibiofibular ligaments and interosseous membrane and suffered a contusion to his lower left leg.
Unlike his left shoulder injury in December, this time, Curry will have to make a complete recovery before taking to the court again in order to avoid aggravating his injury.
“Ligaments can heal in all different types of timelines,” Curry stated. “So there’s a window for each checkpoint. After the All-Star break, I will hopefully get back on the court, and then depending on how things go from there, we can key in on a specific date to get back.”
While Curry is able to do almost any non-basketball-related activity such as cycling and lifting weights, he insists that he is not yet at a stage in which he can test his body on the court.
