Curry Ruled Out Of Clippers Game After Reinjuring Ankle

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Golden State star Stephen Curry is out for Wednesday night's home game against the Clippers after he slipped during shootaround and sprained his troublesome right ankle.

The Warriors updated their injury report to include Curry's status. It's the same injury that recently sidelined him for 11 games.

The reigning Western Conference player of the week, Curry has scored at least 29 points in seven straight games with 30 or more in six of those games. He has 12 30-point performances overall this season.

Curry had been practically unstoppable in five games since returning from the 11-game absence with his initial ankle injury, averaging 35.2 points over that span as well as 5.6 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.4 steals in 32.4 minutes. Curry also has four or more 3-pointers in seven straight games.
