Warriors of the Golden State Superstar Steph Curry has missed three games with an ankle injury, and Warriors fans are wondering exactly how long they will have to wait before their superstar returns to the court. They received some promising news on Wednesday, when Curry was listed as ‘Questionable’ on injury report for Golden State’s game against Washington Monday night.

Curry participated in some shooting in Washington DC, likely to test his ankle and see if it would allow him to return to action. This deep into his career and this early in the season, the team probably doesn’t want to risk anything with Curry and will likely make sure he feels fully healthy before clearing him to play.

The sky didn’t fall while Curry was sidelined. Golden State has won each of its three games without Curry, most recently a 127-121 overtime winner against Houston, in which Golden State actually blew a huge lead but managed to pull out an overtime victory.

Buddy Hield essentially transformed into Steph Curry in Curry’s absence, scoring 28, 21 and 27 points in each game. So far, Hield looks to be one of the best offseason signings in the entire league, hitting more than half of his 3-pointers and keeping this offense afloat without Curry in the lineup. Of course, Hield shouldn’t be expected to be an offensive powerhouse every night, so getting Curry back as quickly as possible remains priority number one for the Warriors, who are currently 5-1.

Not only are the Warriors winning games right now, but they are dominating for the most part. Averaging 121 points per game while allowing just 103, the Dubs are playing elite basketball on both ends through two weeks. So while things aren’t bleak without Steph Curry and the team can be patient with his return, the return of their captain will only provide an added boost to the team’s offense.
