Stephen Curry was remaining cautious with his groin injury as the Golden State Warriors continued to struggle without him.

The 30-year-old injured his groin against the Milwaukee Bucks earlier in November and was expected to miss a couple of games. However, he has now missed a total of six games, with the Golden State winning just two of them.

Despite their struggles, the Warriors will not be rushing him back onto the court as this is a new kind of injury for Curry, who over the years has mainly had knee and ankle problems.

"I'm learning about this one," Curry told media recently. "I can tell you everything you want to know about ankles, but this is obviously a new one for me, so we're trying to make sure I stay cautious, but we know that we're moving in the right direction. So I don't know how long it'll be, but that's all I can pretty much ask for right now."

It was announced Wednesday that Curry would miss at least 10 further days, after which he would reevaluated. That means he would likely only return after the visit of the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday, though he could also miss the game against the Sacramento Kings, which takes place a day later, when he is to be reevaluated.

If that is the case, Curry is hopeful he can at least have an expected return date by then.

"I think at that point I should be able to kinda say when I'll be able to play," Curry added. "Hopefully it's that next day or next game or two."

The Warriors are certainly missing the point guard's influence and leadership.

Their 104-92 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday followed their 112-109 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday, meaning they are winless in their last three games with their regular season record dropping to 12-6.

Having previously raced to a 10-1 start, Golden State have also notably gone 0-3 in a road trip for the first time under head coach Steve Kerr, who believes his side is experiencing the "real NBA" now.

"Oh, yeah," Kerr said after the loss to San Antonio when asked if this was the toughest run he's faced. "But I've had a dream run for four and a half years. We've had such a charmed existence the last four seasons. This is the toughest stretch we've been in."

"This is the real NBA. We haven't been in the real NBA the last few years. We've been in this dream. And so now we're faced real adversity and we got to get out of it ourselves," he added.

That adversity did not only include Curry's injury but drama on the court, with Kevin Durant and Draymond Green's confrontation last week in their loss to the Los Angeles Clippers dominating the headlines recently.

However, the Warriors will play their next four games at home in the Oracle Arena starting with the visit of the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. With a 8-1 record at home this season, that game could turn their season around within an instant.
