The Golden State Warriors will take on the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, December 11, at the Toyota Center. The Warriors come into the game riding high after defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday, improving their record to 14-9. The Rockets, meanwhile, will be looking to avenge their previous losses to the Warriors, who have already bested them twice this season.
In positive news for Golden State, Stephen Curry is expected to play in the matchup. Curry’s name was notably absent from the team’s latest injury report. The Warriors star missed five games earlier this season due to an ankle injury he suffered against the Los Angeles Clippers.
However, the Warriors will still be without De’Anthony Melton, who is out for the season with an ACL injury. Andrew Wiggins is listed as questionable due to an ankle issue, leaving his availability uncertain.
On the Rockets’ side, Tari Eason is listed as questionable after suffering a concussion, while Fred VanVleet’s status remains up in the air due to a knee injury.
Anthony Edwards Lauds Stephen Curry
In a recent interview with Rachel Nichols of All the Smoke Productions, Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards mentioned Stephen Curry as his most influential teammate during the 2024 Paris Olympics. The event marked the first time both Edwards and Curry played together on the international stage, where they led Team USA to a gold medal.
“I’d say Steph. Playing without the ball, running around, cutting, setting screens, getting guys open. Steph did it for the whole Olympics, and I definitely try to mimic that,” Edwards said.

Edwards has also witnessed Curry’s dominance firsthand in recent matchups between the Timberwolves and the Warriors. In the first game, Curry scored 23 points in the Warriors’ 107-90 loss. However, he bounced back in the second game, leading Golden State to victory with an impressive 30-point performance.
