Curry missed the last three games after suffering a left hamstring strain in the Warriors' loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday, October 27.

The Warriors' medical staff re-examined Curry on Friday and the team said he was progressing well but ruled him out for Saturday's game in Houston.

Curry is averaging 18.3 points, 6.7 assists and 5.3 rebounds in three games this season.

The Warriors won all three games Curry missed, and now they're bringing him back for a tough stretch after the game against the Wizards. Golden State finishes the road trip against the Boston Celtics on Wednesday, the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday and the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday before returning to Klay Thompson and the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday.
