Encouraging rehab progress could see Stephen Curry return before the end of the month, giving the Golden State Warriors a major boost down the stretch.
Stephen Curry’s Rehab Progress Likely Sets Up Late-March Return
Here’s some good news for Dub Nation: their franchise star is trending toward a return near the end of March.
The Warriors are reportedly optimistic as Curry continues to make progress in his rehabilitation from a knee injury. While the team has remained cautious with the return of its starting point guard, the latest developments finally offer encouraging signs in the Bay. And it comes at a crucial time, as Golden State looks for its leader for help during the final stretch of the season.
Latest Update on Curry’s Recovery
Curry has appeared in just 39 of the Warriors’ 69 games this season as the team continues to navigate a difficult 2025-26 campaign. To make matters worse, the four-time champion has been sidelined for the last 19 games, which have been a crucial period for the franchise. Fortunately for The Bay Area franchise, he looks poised for an imminent return.

Charania adds that the process for Curry and the Warriors is ongoing, saying: “Now it’s about him building on this conditioning, getting more and more comfort in that knee before he’s able to make the call to make it back on the court.”
A positive sign in Curry’s rehabilitation is the lack of swelling and discomfort in his knee, which had previously prevented him from returning after All-Star weekend. He is set to be re-evaluated on March 21, with hopes of bringing even better news to the team and fans.
Positive Signs Emerging
With encouraging signs in his recovery, Curry has already resumed on-court workouts and even put up shots ahead of the Celtics game. Yet, Golden State has been playing it safe with their iconic leader.
