NBC Broadcasters Confirm NBA Ref’s Cruel Treatment of Stephen Curry as Steve Kerr Reveals Injury Update

Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors thought they may have dodged a bullet. Stephen Curry was feeling “weird” pain in his back. They got him rest and even won the game. So his return against the Toronto Raptors was meant to have him feel the intensity of the game once again. For 25 minutes, Curry looked in rhythm. And then the worst thing happened.

During one possession in the third quarter, Curry attracted two defenders and dished out a pass to the open man. Sadly, he became sandwiched in between the Raptors, landing awkwardly on his tailbone. The two-time MVP was immediately in pain and escorted to the locker room. It was diagnosed as a pelvic contusion.

The announcers related to the agony Curry must be feeling. “He’s in pain, You just feel for him, you pray for him. You know he is going to do everything he can to heal up and get all the treatment,” one of them said as the postseason is right around the corner. However, while his back will improve, what about the officials watching Curry?

As the announcer rightfully pointed out, “It was a foul that was missed somehow. We’re not surprised with Steph unfortunately,”. And by looking at the play itself, it doesn’t take a second look to see the foul. Stephen Curry took a nasty shot from the Raptors duo causing the forceful fall.

As much as it may seem that players ask for fouls on any contact, there’s something wrong with the Chef only averaging 4.2 free throws per game. Defenders are draped over him, and having an ignorant whistle allows them to do more outside of the books. Today, the four-time champion seemed poised for a big game, scoring 17 points while only missing twice.

A relieving update on Stephen Curry

As Curry didn’t return, a nervous sweat could break for fans. Is it a major ailment? So far very little is available as far as diagnosis. After the game, Steve Kerr did have some updates. “He’s getting the MRI right now,” the Warriors head coach said. However, Kerr did provide some reassurance to his stans.

“He was trying to come back. He thought he might be able to come back and we just decided not to risk anything. Hopefully, it’s not bad,” Kerr mentioned.

A few positives to take from here. Namely, Stephen Curry feeling like he could return to the game could mean the pain was tolerable at the least. Accepting how his age slows down recovery, the Chef wouldn’t push himself to return only to make more than necessary. But to be fair, maybe with him, the Warriors wouldn’t have had to fight till the very end.

But while fans would want Curry to not be in great pain, Steve Kerr is yet to have a conversation with him. Hence, the extent of the injury can’t be put into perspective at this moment. The coach revealed Curry is having imaging done. The Warriors will cross their fingers and pray there’s nothing majorly wrong with Stephen Curry.

Because while tonight the team displayed a stellar mentality after he went down, his shot-making prowess and court presence will be much-needed components if they wish to take it deep.
