Warriors’ Stephen Curry and Draymond Green will not play against Rockets

Curry will miss for the second time in four games due to what the team called “bilateral management of knee injuries.” He did not play in the Nov. 27 home loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder due to soreness in both knees.

Curry said he wasn’t worried about the injury, but acknowledged it has the potential to become a “nuisance” issue. He said he and the Warriors were trying to stay ahead, but he wasn’t sure if he would have to sit out future games as part of the problem’s maintenance.

Green will miss his second straight game due to left calf tightness. Coach Steve Kerr said Green was scheduled for an MRI on Wednesday. Speaking on his radio show on 95.7 The Game, Kerr said more would be known about the MRI on Thursday.

“He’s doing well,” Kerr said of Green. “But overall, I talked to him yesterday and he said he feels pretty good. My instinct is that it won’t be a very long-term problem. But we’ll have to see what our training staff says tomorrow.” “.

Kerr has said the Warriors will keep an eye on Curry and Green’s minutes and games as they try to keep their veterans fresh.
