A Bleacher Report story mentions that Stephen Curry’s injury it’s way more serious than people thought and claimed that Curry won’t return this season from a broken bone in his left hand. Well let’s elaborate it little bit. Curry broke his left hand in the game with the Phoenix Suns, when he collided with Suns center Aron Baynes while driving to the rim (almost two weeks ago). Curry fell onto his hands and immediately grabbed his left wrist after Baynes landed on top of him. He underwent surgery on his broken left hand last Friday at the Cedars-Sinai Kerlan-Jobe Institute in Los Angeles. Then the report that came out said that Curry will not play basketball for the next three months, which basically means that he will miss at least 41 games. His situation would get re-evaluated in February 1st. Then Bleacher Report’s Ric Bucher reported a team source said Curry’s “fracture was worse than originally thought.”

Bucher had posted this tweet on Friday: “A clarification from my story today citing a source saying Steph Curry is likely to miss the remainder of the season: while the injury was worse than originally thought, he wouldn’t play again this season because there’s no competitive reason. Story is being updated.”

The Warriors quickly denied that claim, with a team source calling the report, “complete hogwash.” Golden State head coach Steve Kerr added that the initial report was a “head scratcher,” when he was asked about it before the team’s Friday night game vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves.

According to Kerith Burke: Steve Kerr said he has “no idea” where the report Steph Curry wont play this season came from. He said he talked to Bob Myers and Rick Celebrini and “nothing has changed.” Reiterated the plan is to reevaluate Steph after three months and play him when he’s ready.
