Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry will miss this weekend’s NBA All-Star Game because of a lingering right knee issue.
The absence removes one of the league’s marquee players from the All-Star showcase, with Curry continuing to manage the knee problem rather than participate in the event.
What it means
Curry’s status underscores the impact of injuries even during the league’s midseason festivities, as players and teams weigh health considerations during the All-Star break.
