Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry recently sat down with ESPN to briefly discuss the Playoffs, his summer, and next season. The discussion mainly circulated around health, with Curry being injured a number of times in 2016.
“I wasn’t 100%, but who cares”, Curry said in the video when asked about his health during the Playoffs.
Curry suffered injuries to his shoulders and knees, causing him to miss six games during the postseason.
“I’ve taken advantage of the summer to get right, and I still have a little bit of work to do going into training camp”, said Curry.
The theory that Stephen Curry wasn’t 100% was debated for weeks, with some adamant that the 2015-’16 Most Valuable Player wasn’t as injured it seemed. For Curry, he wasn’t using the injury excuse towards losing to the Cavaliers in the Finals.
“If you’re out there playing and you’re not 100%, nobody’s going to listen to that”, Curry concluded.
