Stephen Curry is listed as day-to-day for rest on the Warriors' injury report, with an expected return date of Oct. 10 and no previous status on file. The listing follows Tuesday's preseason game against the Lakers, when Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reported Curry would be limited to around 20 minutes, and leaves his workload for Wednesday's preseason game at the Trail Blazers uncertain.
What happened
Stephen Curry appeared on the Warriors' injury report Wednesday at 12:55 a.m. ET as day-to-day with a rest designation. No previous status is listed for him. The report carries a note from Anthony Slater of ESPN.com, who wrote that Curry would be limited to around 20 minutes in Tuesday's preseason game against the Lakers.

What it means for the Warriors
Golden State is at the Trail Blazers on Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET on NBA TV. The Warriors are 0-0 since the 2026-27 season has not started, so there is no record to split with or without Curry yet. Last season he averaged 26.6 points, 3.6 rebounds and 4.7 assists in 30.9 minutes across 43 games. If he sits or plays fewer minutes at Portland, the biggest shares have gone to Jimmy Butler III (31.1 min, 20.0 pts), Brandin Podziemski (28.5 min, 13.8 pts), Draymond Green (27.5 min, 8.4 pts) and Moses Moody (25.7 min, 12.1 pts).
What to watch
The Warriors are expected to update Curry's status closer to Wednesday's game at Portland. The injury report lists an expected return date of Oct. 10, tied to the rest designation rather than a specific injury. Golden State has more preseason games ahead before the 2026-27 regular season opens, and Curry's next appearance on the report will show whether that Oct. 10 target holds.
