Steph Curry's Status vs. Utah Jazz Revealed
After a frustrating loss to the LA Clippers on Wednesday night, the Golden State Warriors are right back in action on Thursday night against the Utah Jazz. The Warriors have released their injury report for this game, and Steph Curry is not listed, meaning he is available to play.
With this being the last game before the All-Star break, and also the last half of a back-to-back, this would normally be the type of game that teams see as an opportunity to rest their stars. For the Warriors, they do not have that luxury right now, as each game is vital. This is especially the case when Golden State plays Utah, who is currently the team trying to chase down that final play-in spot.
Entering play on Thursday night, the Warriors are the 10th seed in the Western Conference, and Utah is in 11th. That makes this game even more important, as the Warriors do not want to lose any ground on the Jazz.
While not falling below the play-in picture is of course the first priority for the Warriors right now, they are also hoping to climb up the standings as well. While a top-six spot is very unrealistic, just getting into 8th or 9th would go a long way towards securing a spot in the playoffs, as this would give the Warriors two shots at a play-in victory.
