The Golden State Warriors received an injury update for former two-time MVP Stephen Curry after he was forced to leave Wednesday's game against the Rockets after only six minutes. According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Curry has been diagnosed with an oblique abdominal tear and will be reevaluated in two weeks.

A season ago, Golden State was 13-26 in the 39 games that Curry missed due to a lingering knee injury. However, Curry's longtime running mate, Draymond Green, believes the team is better suited to perform in lieu of his absence this time around. "We're more certain of who we are, what makes us a good team. I think that puts us in a better position to be successful without him (Curry) as opposed to where we were last year."

Now, with both Curry and Brandon Williams sidelined, the Warriors will turn to De'Anthony Melton, Brandin Podziemski and LJ Cryer to handle point guard duties.
