He spent nearly a month on the sidelines with a shoulder injury in December 2022 and January this year.

The reigning champions went 5-6 through the 11 games he missed with a shoulder injury. Steve Kerr's side have struggled for consistency all season and have a 29-28 record this season.
Even with Curry in the team, they have fumbled double-digit leads in several games. Nevertheless, they have demonstrated why they won the NBA title last season and therefore, they shouldn't be written off.
Curry on leg injury
The two-time MVP was diagnosed with partial tears to his superior tibiofibular ligaments, interosseous membrane, and a contusion to his left leg after colliding with Mavericks guard, McKinley Wright IV.
He is yet to do basketball activities on the court but has been biking and lifting weights. He says he's taking one step at a time.
"It's a slow process early, letting everything settle, let the healing process start. The goal right now is just trying to let it heal while you maintain as much of your strength and conditioning. Keeping everything as active as possible around the injury," he said via ESPN.
