Stephen Curry is closer to returning, though what that means in terms of the 2017-18 NBA calendar is still unknown.
The Golden State Warriors announced Tuesday evening that the superstar guard’s ankle — injured in a game against the Pelicans on Dec. 4 — is “healing well.” The team added, however, that a timetable for his return would not be available until at least next week, when Curry is slated to undergo another reevaluation.

The Warriors have gone 5-0 since the injury, a stretch in which they have also been forced to make do without All-Star forward Draymond Green (shoulder). Curry is averaging 26.3 points, 6.6 assists and 5.1 rebounds per contest this season.
