The Warriors have struggled this season after coming off a championship last season but Stephen Curry’s play has been a bright spot. He’d been performing at an MVP level, though it hasn’t been enough for the Warriors to find a consistent level of play.

With Curry missing an extended amount of time, expect added responsibility on the shoulders of Jordan Poole and Klay Thompson. The Warriors' ability to weather the storm if Curry is out could be crucial to the rest of their season.
