Curry sustained a left knee contusion and will be listed as doubtful for the game.
Curry took a number of hits during the Warriors-Suns game Wednesday night Phoenix and coach Steve Kerr opted to hold him out of practice as a precaution.

“He fell on the floor about three times,” Kerr said. “He kept banging the outside of his knee. It’s nothing serious, but I would say he’s doubtful for tomorrow.”
Despite the physical punishment, Curry managed to score a game-high 42 points in 35 minutes during a 120-111 victory over the Suns.
