Thunder vs Warriors injury report, prediction: Is Stephen Curry playing tonight?

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry will not play during a road game against the OKC Thunder at 7:30 p.m. CST Saturday.
Curry remains out due to right patellofemoral pain syndrome. He has missed the last 12 games for Golden State (32-30), which is fresh off of a 115-113 overtime road win over the Houston Rockets on Thursday.
OKC (49-15) also continues to be without Jalen Williams (right hamstring strain) and Ajay Mitchell (abdominal strain and left ankle sprain). Chet Holmgren (flu), Isaiah Hartenstein (left calf contusion) and Alex Caruso (left hip contusion) have been ruled out as well.

Thunder vs Warriors predictions, picks
Justin Martinez: OKC 121, Golden State 103
Golden State earned an overtime road win over Houston on Thursday despite being without Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler and Kristaps Porzingis. That should tell you that this team can’t be taken lightly. Still, beating the reigning NBA champions while short-handed is even more difficult. Shot creation will be tough against an OKC defense that’s stacked with elite defenders, and getting stops will also be a challenge against an offense that’s led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Give me the Thunder at home.
