According to Shams Charania of The Vertical, Curry suffered no structural damage and the ankle is stable, but he did have "significant swelling." Charania reported that Curry could be out "a while."

A league source told Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN that Curry will be re-evaluated "in a couple of weeks." That timeline suggests Curry would be out at least two weeks and possibly much longer.

Curry rolled his ankle when he accidentally stepped on the foot of E'Twaun Moore of the New Orleans Pelicans.
