Curry staked the Warriors to an early lead by pouring in 13 points in the first quarter and didn't let off the gas much over the final 36 minutes. He matched his season high with eight triples and supplemented the scoring production with 12 assists, his third-best total of the campaign. Curry looks locked in at the moment, as he's averaging an impressive 33.8 points, 7.0 assists, 5.6 boards, 5.3 triples and 1.3 steals per game in his last six outings.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Leads all scorers with 35 points
Rotowire
Curry amassed 35 points (13-21 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, 11 assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Friday's 129-117 victory over the Raptors.
Curry led the way for the Warriors, dropping a game-high 35 points, including six triples. Since returning from injury, Curry has scored at least 20 points in seven of eight games, connecting on multiple three-pointers in all eight. He has been a top-10 player over the past week, right in line with where his season rank. Barring another injury, Curry should be able to maintain his current value, providing a solid ROI for anyone who drafted him.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Ejected Wednesday
Rotowire
Curry has been ejected from Wednesday's matchup against the Grizzlies, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Curry will exit Wednesday's tilt with 1:14 left in the fourth quarter having posted 34 points and three assists in 35 minutes of action. Although there is little time remaining, the close nature of the contest could result in overtime. If that occurs, Donte DiVincenzo would likely step into Curry's vacated backcourt spot while Jordan Poole and Klay Thompson would see bumps in usage. Curry should be back in action Friday against Toronto.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Won't play Friday
Rotowire
Curry has been ruled out Friday against Cleveland due to left hip tightness.
Curry has played at least 31 minutes in four of the last five matchups, averaging 25.8 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 33.8 minutes per game during that time. However, he'll be one of several Warriors who will sit out the second half of a back-to-back set following Thursday's overtime loss to Boston. It wouldn't be surprising to see Curry back in action for Sunday's game against the Nets.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Hits six threes in loss
Rotowire
Curry logged 29 points (9-25 FG, 6-18 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and three steals in 43 minutes during Thursday's 121-118 overtime loss to the Celtics.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Erupts for 41 in win
Rotowire
Curry racked up 41 points (12-28 FG, 6-15 3Pt, 11-12 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 38 minutes during Monday's 127-118 victory over the Wizards.

He also collected 10 rebounds, marking his best performance on the glass since Dec. 2. Though Curry has now played in just three games since his three-week absence due to the shoulder issue, head coach Steve Kerr said prior to Sunday's contest that the star point guard will be available for the second leg of a back-to-back set Monday in Washington, per Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Could play both nights of B2B
Rotowire
Head coach Steve Kerr said Sunday that Curry (shoulder) is clear to play both nights of the Warriors' upcoming back-to-back set, which starts Sunday in Chicago, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Curry recently missed 11 straight games due to a left shoulder injury, but the issue won't impact the superstar from playing in both sets of the Warriors' upcoming back-to-back set. Curry has yet to play in both halves of a back-to-back this season, so it'll be interesting to see how his body holds up. In two games since his lengthy absence, the MVP candidate has averaged just 19.5 points on 41.2 percent shooting.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Scores 24 points in return
Rotowire
Curry (shoulder) totaled 24 points (8-22 FG, 5-15 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three assists, one rebound and one steal in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 125-113 loss to the Suns.
In his return from an 11-game absence, Curry wasn't sharp in the early going, and even though he caught fire down the stretch with 16 fourth-quarter points, his efforts weren't enough to lift the Warriors to victory against a shorthanded Suns team. While the result might have been disappointing for the Warriors, getting Curry back healthy and having him finish the night on a high note is an encouraging sign for his outlook moving forward. Curry was on a light minutes restriction Tuesday, but he shouldn't have any limitations when the Warriors return to action Friday at San Antonio after a pair of off days.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Won't see extended minutes Tuesday

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Will return and start Tuesday
Rotowire
Curry (shoulder) will return to the Warriors' starting lineup Tuesday against the Suns, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
Andrews reported Monday that Curry was on track to make his first appearance Tuesday since Dec. 14, so this isn't all that surprising. However, she notes that while Curry will start, it's still unclear if he'll be limited following a lengthy absence due to a shoulder injury. Nonetheless, his presence is still a significant boost to Golden State's offense. Barring any setbacks, Curry should be back in his usual role before too long if he's restricted at all during his return. Across 26 appearances this season, the former MVP is averaging 30.0 points, 6.8 assists, 6.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 34.4 minutes per game.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Officially listed as questionable
Rotowire
Curry (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns.
Although Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reported earlier Monday that Curry is probable for Tuesday's matchup against Phoenix, the 34-year-old is officially listed as questionable on the Warriors' injury report. Regardless of his official designation, he's been making good progress recently, as he took part in practice Friday before going through another full session Monday. He hasn't played since Dec. 14, so if he's given the green light against the Suns, it's possible that his workload is monitored.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Officially probable vs. Suns
Rotowire
Curry (shoulder) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Suns, Kendra Andrews of ESPN reports.
Curry took part in practice Friday, went through another full session Monday and now appears to be on track to play for the first time since Dec. 14. If the two-time MVP does play Tuesday, it'll put an end to an 11-game streak of absences due to a left shoulder injury. Given the layoff, it's possible the Warriors could exercise caution with Curry's workload for a game or two, but fantasy managers should feel mostly comfortable locking the star guard into lineups this week. Prior to the injury, Curry was averaging 29.7 points, 7.0 assists, 6.5 rebounds and 5.0 threes over his last 20 games.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Practices again Monday

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr confirmed that Curry (shoulder) participated in all portions of practice Monday, including scrimmage work, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
Curry, who has been sidelined since suffering a partial dislocation of his left shoulder Dec. 14, resumed practicing with the Warriors this past Friday, going through 5-on-5 work that day. With the veteran point guard experiencing no setbacks coming out of the weekend, he was back on the court again Monday and appears to be closing in on a return to the lineup. Warriors general manager Bob Myers said last week that Curry was targeting a return to action Friday in San Antonio, so Tuesday's matchup with the Suns could mark the 12th and final game that the eight-time All-Star misses due to the injury.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Rehab going well
Rotowire
Curry (shoulder) recently underwent an evaluation that showed he is "making good progress" and will be re-evaluated in two weeks.
Curry has missed the last four games after suffering a subluxation of his left shoulder Dec. 14. While the superstar point guard's timetable for return has been reported as "a few weeks" and "closer to a month," he seems likely to retake the court sometime in January. In Curry's absence, Jordan Poole, Donte DiVincenzo (illness), Ty Jerome and Moses Moody will likely continue to receive enhanced roles.
