It seems as though the Golden State Warriors have avoided the worst as it concerns Stephen Curry.
The superstar guard received an MRI on his pelvis which revealed a contusion, but confirmed that he did not receive any structural damage, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Friday.
According to Charania, Curry is set to miss Saturday’s game against the Atlanta Hawks — the first game of the Warriors’ six-game road trip — and will be re-evaluated on Monday.
Curry suffered the injury in Thursday’s 117-114 win over the Toronto Raptors. During the third quarter, Curry drove the lane and collided with Toronto’s Jonathan Mogbo while attempting a jump pass to the corner.
Curry appeared to fall hard and immediately clutched his backside before heading down the tunnel. He was ruled out shortly after.
In 59 games this season, Curry was averaging 24.3 points, 6.1 assists and 4.4 rebounds while leading the NBA with 4.4 three-pointers made and 11.2 attempted per contest.
The Warriors are currently jockeying for position in the crowded Western Conference and sit sixth with a 41-29 record. They’re 9-1 in their last 10 games and are in the midst of a two-game win streak.
