Stephen Curry left the game due to injury

After Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors was forced to leave his preseason game against the Sacramento Kings on Friday night, there was some reason for concern. Curry's shooting hand hurt during the second quarter of the game, and he was unable to return. After the Warriors' director of sports health and performance, Rick Celebrini took the former two-time MVP to the locker room, and he did not start the second half on the bench.

It turns up that Curry needed X-rays to assess the severity of his injury, which was eventually identified as a jammed right finger. Fortunately, it was not a significant issue. Even though Stephen Curry's early departure did not stop the Dubs from defeating the Kings 109-106. With 23 points on 7 of 13 shooting, Moses Moody led the way as Golden State Warriors won its third straight preseason game. In his 16 minutes of play, Curry ended with six points, three rebounds, four assists, a block, and one triple. 

Though Stephen Curry is heading into his 16^th NBA season his age is 36 and this time Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr will be careful about his playtime and will have to take extra care of Stephen Curry. Meanwhile, the Golden State Warriors' next preseason game is against the Detroit Pistons. On October 23, the Golden State Warriors will play their first regular-season game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
