The Warriors have had a difficult start to the season despite his outstanding play; after 39 games, they have an 18-21 record and are now ranked 12th in the Western Conference.

Curry did not play in their most recent game, a 129-118 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, because he needed more recuperation.

The Warriors will visit the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night in Salt Lake City for their last road game of the trip after the Grizzlies.
