MIAMI — Golden State Warriors<\/a> star Stephen Curry<\/a> will miss Wednesday night’s game in Miami with ankle soreness.<\/p>\n

The team’s other headliners, Jimmy Butler<\/a> and Draymond Green<\/a>, are questionable.<\/p>\n

Curry initially tweaked his right ankle last Friday night during a 49-point performance in San Antonio and then tweaked it again during the first half of Tuesday night’s loss in Orlando.<\/p>\n

He said postgame he wanted to see how it responded after a plane ride and some sleep. The Warriors ruled him out six hours before tip against the Heat<\/a>. They are hopeful he will return Friday night against the Portland Trail Blazers<\/a> back in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

Butler is dealing with the same lower back soreness that forced him to miss a game in Sacramento earlier this season. It’s his second trip back to Miami since the Heat traded him to the Warriors last February.<\/p>\n

Green and reserve guard Buddy Hield<\/a> are both questionable with an illness. Veteran center Al Horford<\/a> is resting on the second night of a back-to-back. Fifth-year wing Jonathan Kuminga<\/a> remains out with knee tendinitis.<\/p>\n

This is the end of a grueling road stretch for the Warriors. After Wednesday night, they will have played a league-high 17 games in the season’s first 29 days across 12 cities, including an NBA-high five back-to-backs. Their next five games are at home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"MIAMI — Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry will miss Wednesday night’s game in Miami with ankle soreness.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":285725,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[557],"tags":[64,63,590,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-295500","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nba","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-nba","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=295500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295500\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/285725"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=295500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=295500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=295500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
