SAN FRANCISCO —Golden State Warriors<\/a> star Steph Curry<\/a> will miss Friday night’s game in Denver because of a lingering illness he picked up following the team’s recent road trip to Milwaukee and Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

The Warriors’ matchup with the Nuggets is also their NBA Cup opener.<\/p>\n

Curry started feeling symptoms leading into the team’s home game against thePhoenix Suns<\/a>on Tuesday night. He played through them and scored 28 points in 34 minutes but admitted postgame — coughing and sniffling through a short news conference — that his gas tank was on empty in the second half.<\/p>\n

Golden State immediately ruled Curry out of its Wednesday night game in Sacramento (an eventual loss) and will now miss Curry for a second straight game against a conference opponent.<\/p>\n

Warriors coach Steve Kerr said he texted with Curry and the 17th-year guard told him his symptoms had only been worsening.<\/p>\n

Curry isn’t expected to travel to Denver, instead resting at home prior to a Sunday night game against theIndiana Pacers<\/a>in San Francisco. Jimmy Butler<\/a> and Draymond Green<\/a> are expected to make the trip to Denver.<\/p>\n

Green is listed as probable with a rib contusion. Butler is questionable with a lower back strain. Both missed the loss to the Kings but are “hopeful” to return against the Nuggets, Kerr said.<\/p>\n
