Can Warriors survive without Stephen Curry with tough stretch ahead?

Golden State faces a difficult two-week stretch after Stephen Curry suffered an oblique abdominal tear during Wednesday's 115-108 loss to Houston. The veteran guard, who had been performing at an MVP-caliber level, will be sidelined as the team navigates upcoming matchups against high-performing opponents like Boston, Dallas, Memphis, Portland, and San Antonio.

Draymond Green expressed confidence in the team's improved chemistry, noting that the roster is better equipped to handle these absences than in previous seasons. With Curry out, the Warriors will look to Brandin Podziemski to anchor perimeter play, while rookie Yaxel Lendeborg is expected to maintain his high-efficiency scoring output to help sustain the team's 8-4 start.
