Will Stephen Curry play on Mavericks-Warriors?

The Dallas Mavericks will face the Golden State Warriors in an NBA Cup consolation game on Sunday night in San Francisco. Both teams got the rest they needed, but the Mavericks are back on the road for the 13th time in 17 games.

Dallas has several key players on the injured list, but none are nearly as important as the Warriors’ Stephen Curry.

The Mavericks have PJ Washington back for this game after he missed Tuesday’s NBA Cup game against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to illness. Dallas had a 1-5 record when he was out of the lineup this season, so he will be a welcome addition back to the lineup.

Dallas will be without Naji Marshall (illness), Maxi Kleber (illness, broken rib), Brandon Williams (right thumb sprain), Jaden Hardy (ankle sprain) and Dante Exum (wrist surgery). Marshall played 29 minutes on Tuesday, posting a team-high 19 points, but is clearly still not over the mistake that has reverberated through the locker room.

Stephen Curry is one of four Warriors listed on the injury report as questionable with right cervical spine (neck) inflammation. Golden State has a 4-1 record in the games he has missed and has been able to survive without him due to their previous strength, but he isn’t the only key warrior listed.

Andrew Wiggins is also listed as questionable due to tightness in his right adductor area (thigh). Moses Moody is out with a left patella tendon problem, while De’Anthony Melton is out with a torn ACL. Melton is also expected to be transferred to the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday for Dennis Schröder.
