The Warriors<\/strong> will be without Stephen Curry<\/strong> on Thursday night versus the Celtics<\/strong>, and there\u2019s no clear timetable for his return. Curry told the training staff his right knee didn\u2019t feel ready for a live scrimmage when he returned to the facility Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust wasn\u2019t where he needed to be,<\/strong>\u201d Steve Kerr said, adding the team will have an update after Curry\u2019s work with the staff. Kerr also noted another MRI could be on the table after consultation with Rick Celebrini, who is in Milan watching his son Macklin play for Team Canada in Olympic hockey.<\/p>\n

On the brighter side, Kristaps Porzingis<\/strong> is expected to make his Warriors<\/strong> debut against Boston, with an early plan for short stints and limited minutes. Acquired from Atlanta at the deadline in the deal that sent Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to the Hawks, Porzingis said it will be \u201cweird<\/strong>\u201d to face his former team and praised the fit alongside Draymond Green.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
