Kerr added that he hopes to get both players back before Monday’s road game against the Toronto Raptors.

“Unfortunately, they’re at that age and stage of their career where they’re so worn out that no matter how you look at it, they’re going to miss some games,” Kerr said.

“If they are injured we have to be very careful. Otherwise they’ll miss a month or two.”

Curry leads the Warriors with 22.6 points per game on 44.6 percent shooting from the field and 44.1 percent from three-point range this season.

Green paces the Golden State defense with 1.2 blocks per game and averages 8.7 points.

The Warriors’ decision to sign Dennis Schröder from the Brooklyn Nets becomes even more important given the injury news.

After losing Curry’s previous backup De’Anthony Melton to season-ending knee surgery, the Warriors decided to trade the remainder of Melton’s contract for Schröder once the former Nets guard became tradeable in December. It’s likely that Schröder will increase his playing time in Curry’s absence.

After winning 12 of their first 15 games to start the season, the Warriors slipped in the Western Conference standings due to a series of losses in November and December.
