Outside of the quad injury earlier in the season, Curry has been relatively healthy, and the Warriors have also decided to give him some games off to rest. Curry is coming off a game where he scored 38 points against the Utah Jazz , and it wouldn't be a surprise if he started to deal with the soreness during or right after the loss.

Curry was initially listed as questionable against the Timberwolves, but he was recently upgraded to available. Al Horford and De'Anthony Melton were both also questionable but will join Curry as available.

Not having Curry on the court would've been rough for the Warriors, especially since they're without Jimmy Butler for the rest of the season after he tore his ACL. Jonathan Kuminga will also be out as he suffered a knee injury against the Dallas Mavericks . With Curry playing, he will be relied on heavily, and that will be the case for the remainder of the season if they can't get any more help before the deadline.
It's uncertain if Mike Dunleavy Jr . will make that help, but if they want to preserve these final years with the core group and continue to compete, it might be in his best interest to do so. At the same time, Dunleavy has let it be known that he doesn't want to do anything that will jeopardize the future of the team when players like Curry and Green aren't here anymore.
