Stephen Curry missed Games 2 and 3 of the Warriors’ opening round series against the Rockets while nursing an ankle injury, but returned to Sunday’s Game 4. Just before halftime, however, Curry slipped on a wet spot (created when Donatas Motiejunas fell down just a split-second prior) and went down awkwardly on his knee.
Curry came out to the court to warm up for the second half ready to return, but was escorted back to the Golden State locker room soon thereafter and looked pretty upset about it. According to ESPN‘s Marc Stein, he won’t return.
