Is Steph Curry playing tonight against Sacramento Kings? Latest on 4x NBA champion's status (January 25)

The Golden State Warriors playing on the second night of a back-to-back on Thursday against the Sacramento Kings has fans wondering about Steph Curry's status. The Warriors are yet to release their injury reports. However, Curry is likely to play. The Warriors got a 10-day break after the postponement of two games last week because of the sudden demise of assistant coach Dejan Milojevic.

Curry wasn't on the injury report for the last game and isn't dealing with any lingering injury problems. Curry has missed only three games this year, two due to a knee injury in November and one because of rest on the second night of a back-to-back. The 35-year-old has averaged 26.7 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game, shooting on 45/40/93 splits.

The Warriors improved to 19-22 after Curry produced 25 points and eight assists on just one turnover in the team's 134-112 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday. Curry made seven 3-pointers on 17 attempts. He hopes to carry that momentum into the marquee clash against the Kings, who are a much stronger opponent than the Hawks.
