Stephen Curry played through a quad contusion as the Golden State Warriors beat the New York Knicks 126–113 on Thursday night.
The Golden State Warriors defeated the New York Knicks 126–113 on Thursday night, but the temporary concern afterward surrounded team leader Stephen Curry.
Curry was seen limping in the tunnel following the game and appeared to be in some pain.
According to ESPN's Anthony Slater, the 37-year-old guard played through the issue and later told the reporter it was a quad contusion.
In early December, he suffered a right quadriceps contusion and muscle strain against the Houston Rockets, which forced him to miss a three-game road trip.
Despite the discomfort, Curry finished with 27 points on 10-of-17 shooting from the field, including 4-of-9 from three-point range, along with seven assists in 34 minutes.
With the win, the Warriors improved to 23–19 on the season and moved into eighth place in the Western Conference.
