Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has broken his left hand after falling during a tough game against the Suns (121-110). An injury that could have you off the court for a long period of time.

Curry scored the first seven points for the Warriors, but left the game in the third quarter after suffering a sharp fall after hitting Aron Bynes as he entered the basket .

The body of the Australian pivot fell just above his left hand causing a fracture, as reported by the team in his Twitter account.

"It's a real blow to us," said Steve Kerr , Warrior coach, at a post-match press conference. "That's the kind of thing that happens unfortunately, Aron Baynes came to see me at the end of the game to ask me about Steph and you could see he was sorry," he continued.

"I feel bad for him, when this type of player, who is worthy of the league, is not good , it is not good , especially someone like Steph who did so much to make basketball so exciting," lamented the coach of the Suns, Monty Williams .

The Warriors general manager said that Curry had to undergo an MRI and a CT scan , which will determine if surgery is needed and his recovery time. Ramona Shelburne, of ESPN , said later that it could be a fracture of the second metacarpal of the left hand .

For the Golden State, this injury is a terrible blow. Deprived at least until the spring of his other important player Klay Thompson , who is recovering from a ruptured cruciate ligaments of the left knee, the finalist of the last five seasons in the NBA (three times crowned in 2015, 2017, 2018) It is unrecognizable at this beginning of the year. If we count the losses of Kevin Durant and Kevon Looney , the Warriors have lost four starting players in their last six official matches.

If Curry's absence is long enough, the Warriors are likely to miss the play-offs at the end of the season.
