And the injury bug — or locust invasion, really — begins. ESPN.com reports that Curry will miss at minimum one game, tomorrow night versus the Los Angeles Lakers.
Before re-injuring his ankle last night during the third quarter, Stephen Curry had 16 points and 6 assists on 7-9 shooting. Pretty spectacular numbers in 27 minutes of action. With ongoing anxiety of the back-up point guard position, Monta Ellis did well distributing the ball with 11 assists. We can most likely expect Reggie Williams to play heavy minutes in Curry’s absence as well.
But as the player with most "natural" point guard skills, his skills will definitely be missed against the World Champions.
For a painful reminder (painful in so many ways), here is the video where Curry rolls his ankle (via SLAMonline.com):
