OAKLAND, CA - JANUARY 10: Stephen Curry #30 of the Golden State Warriors reacts during their game against the Miami Heat at ORACLE Arena on January 10, 2017 in Oakland, California.
The Warriors haven’t had the greatest start to their season. Things only got worse Wednesday night when the team announced that star point guard Stephen Curry suffered a broken left hand against the Phoenix Suns.
With around eight-and-a-half minutes left in the third quarter, Curry drove and collided with Suns center Aron Baynes. Curry fell to the floor and Baynes landed on his left arm. Curry drew a foul on the play but couldn’t shoot the free throws. He headed to the locker room, where he had X-rays that confirmed the break.
“Aron Baynes came up after the game and just wanted to know how Steph was doing,” said Warriors coach Steve Kerr. “You could tell he felt really bad. It’s just a random basketball play, so stuff happens.”
The team has no further information on the injury and simply said Curry will undergo an MRI and CT scan Thursday to determine if surgery is necessary. A timetable for the injury is expected shortly afterwards.
