Stephen Curry will miss the Warriors‘ games tonight at Atlanta and Monday at Dallas, but he’s expected to return to practice in the next few days, the team announced (via Twitter).

Curry was reevaluated on Saturday for patellofemoral pain syndrome, also known as runner’s knee, which has sidelined him since January 30. The team stated that he’s making “good progress” and has intensified his individual on-court workouts. Another reevaluation will take place when the team returns home Tuesday.

A recent report cited “cautious optimism” that Curry will return to the court by the end of March. He’s focused on improving his conditioning and making sure he can run and jump without aggravating his right knee.

The 38-year-old guard remains an All-Star-level player when he’s healthy, leading Golden State in scoring at 27.2 points per game while shooting 46.8% from the field and 39.1% from three-point range. The Warriors have a 23-16 record when he has played this season, but are just 10-21 without him and have fallen to 10th place in the West.

The team also provided an update on Moses Moody, who has missed the past nine games after spraining his right wrist on March 2. Moody is also making progress in individual on-court drills and will begin participating in live action soon. Like Curry, he will be reevaluated when the road trip ends.

Moody said on Friday that he’s been through some “high-intensity workouts” and is still feeling pain in his wrist.
