SAN FRANCISCO – Warriors guard Stephen Curry was scheduled to undergo an MRI Sunday night for a sprained left ankle that forced him out early in the fourth quarter of Golden State's 112-104 loss to the LA Clippers.

Coach Steve Kerr said Curry described the injury after the game as “mild to moderate.” However, there is some level of concern for him as he has suffered multiple sprains on the same ankle.

The team expects Curry to miss time, possibly multiple games, sources told ESPN.

“I feel more confident that we can handle an offensive pause without Steph because of our strength,” Kerr told ESPN.

Curry twisted his ankle for the first time just under three minutes before the end of the third quarter. He immediately left the game, limped to the sideline and sat on the bench, where he was looked after by athletic trainer Drew Yoder.

Curry rocked back and forth in his chair for several minutes before beginning to stretch his ankle with a resistance band.

Four minutes into the fourth quarter, he tried to get back into the game. Just seconds later, when Curry tried to fight his way through a screen, he aggravated the injury. This time he left the field and walked back to the locker room, his limp much worse than before and relying on Gary Payton II for support as he walked.

“(I) just shake my head,” Payton said. “I hate having that, especially with him. But we’ll manage…Hopefully he doesn’t miss too many, but we have to figure it out.”

Curry finished the night with 18 points on 6 of 11 shooting, including four made 3-pointers and six assists.

“We just have to stick together,” Buddy Hield told ESPN about the possibility of playing without Curry. “It will be a big challenge.”

If Curry misses time, the Warriors will be looking for someone to take on primary scoring responsibilities. As a sixth man, Hield is averaging 19 points in 20.8 minutes and shooting 53% from three-point range.

Kerr also identified Andrew Wiggins as a potential player for that role – and has been encouraging him to become a high-performing scorer since training camp.

Against the Clippers, Wiggins finished the game with 29 points on 11 of 15 shooting, including 5 of 8 from 3.

“Wiggs got off to a great start and had a great evening,” Kerr said. “He is an obvious candidate to get more possession. But we have a strong team. We have a lot of people who can play. We will be ready.”
