The Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets face off in a battle between two of the hottest teams in the Western Conference. Both teams are in the midst of winning streaks, despite injuries.

Over the past two games, the Warriors have found a way to succeed against the New Orleans Pelicans without the services of Steph Curry. Much of that success is due to the resurgent play of Buddy Hield.

The Warriors will have to find a way to do this without Steph Curry for a third straight game tonight. The team officially listed Curry as out with a left peroneal strain.

The Golden State Warriors revealed that Curry received a re-evaluation on Friday and has made good progress. He was cleared to return during training segments with the Warriors, but still has not been cleared to fully return. Curry will be re-evaluated again on Sunday to potentially return against the Washington Wizards.

In 42 games against the Houston Rockets, Steph Curry averaged 24.8 points, 6.8 assists and 4.7 rebounds. If there’s one franchise that Curry and the Warriors have had a lot of success against, it’s the Rockets. Tonight, however, the team will have to do without him.

The Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets face off tonight at 8:00 p.m. EST.
