The Golden State Warriors had a disappointing 2025-26 season, in large part due to injuries. Throughout the year, no player’s absence weighed more on the team than former two-time MVP award winner Stephen Curry, who missed 39 of 82 regular season games due to a persistent knee injury.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the 2026-27 season, Curry’s knee may be monitored to ensure his health over the duration of a full season. “There’s at least some lingering concern about the knee. From what I’ve been told, it can be managed, but it has to be managed,” said<\/a> Warriors insider Monte Poole.<\/p>\n

“I’m curious to see how it turns out, but Steph seemed pretty confident that he’ll be able to go out there and put out 70+ games.” If Curry is able to appear in 70 games or more, this would be a positive sign for Golden State, as they’ll need him to be healthy, especially considering the team will be without Jimmy Butler III and Moses Moody to begin the season.<\/p>\n
