The star will miss the big remake of the last NBA Finals. Meanwhile in CLE: good news from Isaiah Thomas' condition.
A big disappointment for the Warriors and for all of the NBA fans: The Warriors star won't be qualified to play against Cleveland at Christmas Eve since he is still suffering from his ankle injury. Even though his condition is improving, he got tested last night and will sit out until next week when there will be a revaluation of his condition.
Curry injured his ankle during the game vs New Orleans Pelicans on December 4th. Golden State won 5 games in a row without him, and nine in a row in total. The champ's lineup still got many injured players such as Draymond Green (right shoulder), Shaun Livingston (right knee) and Zaza Pachulia (left shoulder).

Cleveland lost to Milwaukee 119:116 and took a second L. The Cavs were down by 20 in the last quarter but made a 19:0 run (while Lebron is on the bench), but lost it in the end, when LBJ and the Greek Freak hustled for a ball which in the end Giannis got it and scored an and-1 while 5.9 left. Lebron finished with 39 pts and 7 asts but also 7 turnovers.
Despite the loss, the Cavaliers are satisfied with the determination and the character the team showed that got back under the leadership of Dwayne Wade who scored 9 out of 14 shots in the 4th quarter with 2 steals and some big plays.
The good news for the Cavs is that Isaiah Thomas will play with Cleveland's G-League team towards his expected return.
