The Golden State Warriors will be up against the New Orleans Pelicans tonight at the Smoothie King Center. The Warriors suffered a humiliating loss to the Miami Heat, which spoiled the return of Jimmy Butler. Following the culmination of that game, Butler stated that the team needs its "No. 30" back. Stephen Curry's absence was always going to prove costly for the Warriors, and the frailties in the team were visible. Considering that it is a crucial juncture of the season, the Warriors cannot afford to have any hiccups and require their talisman at every point from now on. Thus, given the situation as the Warriors will be in action again tonight, it is imperative to know whether Stephen Curry will play tonight or not. To lay clarity over the query, one would have to take a peek at the Golden State Warriors injury report.
