Stephen Curry Listed As Questionable For Golden State's Tuesday Game In Miami

Stephen Curry is back with the Golden State Warriors after missing the first game of the team's road trip with a pelvic contusion, and could play when his team takes on the Miami Heat in Jimmy Butler's return game Tuesday night.

Curry's status was listed as questionable for the game. The expectation is that Curry - who went through a workout after the Warriors' practice Monday - will make a determination on Tuesday morning based on how he feels.

"We didn't scrimmage or anything but he was moving great," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said of the NBA's all-time 3-point leader. "Surprise - he knocked down a lot of shots."

If Curry plays, he'll be taking part in what is sure to be an emotion-filled night for both teams. It's Butler's first game back in Miami since getting traded to Golden State last month, and in turn, it's the first time that Heat forward Andrew Wiggins - the other big name in that trade - will face the Warriors since the deal happened.

It's also a big game for postseason reasons. Golden State entered Monday in the No. 6 spot in the Western Conference and is trying to avoid falling below that - thereby avoiding the play-in tournament.
