Warriors' Stephen Curry gives reassuring update on ankle injury, set to face Celtics on Martin Luther King Day.
Boston takes on Golden State for a non-conference matchup. Monday's matchup is the first of the season between the two teams.
If it's time for the Golden State Warriors to blow it up, a blockbuster trade with the Boston Celtics could launch them into a brand new Jaylen Brown era.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr rejected a potential Stephen Curry trade demand. Kerr can’t imagine Curry ever wanting out, per 95.7 The Game. “No way,” Kerr said. “I don’t think so. I just think Steph loves the Warriors. He loves the idea of being a Warrior for life. I think that’s so meaningful for him. That’s what makes him unique and different.”
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr can't envision his superstar Stephen Curry demanding a trade anytime soon despite the team's below .500 record (19-20) 39 games into the regular season. The halfway mark is near.
