Curry suffered a pelvic contusion last Thursday and missed Saturday's loss to the Atlanta Hawks because of his injury. It was expected that Curry could return for his new teammate Jimmy Butler's revenge game vs. the Heat on Tuesday, but one move at the end of his Monday workout made training staff want to stay cautious regarding Curry's recovery.

Stephen Curry is going to take a little more time to heal. Curry remained out of Golden State’s lineup Tuesday night for a game against the Miami Heat, the second straight game he has missed with a pelvic contusion.

Dunleavy later told Warriors coach Steve Kerr that Curry lobbied to re-enter the game, but Dr. Rick Celebrini and the franchise’s medical team decided not to risk it. They instead shut Curry down and sent him for a late-night MRI on the injury. The extent of the injury is not yet known.
