SAN FRANCISCO — Steph Curry is expected to miss multiple weeks with a lower leg injury, according to reports.

The extent of Curry’s injury is unknown except that he injured his lower left leg after a collision with Mavericks guard McKinley Wright IV in the third quarter of the Warriors’ win against Dallas on Saturday night.

Curry, 34, was ruled out for the remainder of the game. The team medical staff is still reviewing the results to determine how long Curry will be out. That would likely rule Curry out for the remaining five games until the All-Star break. The All-Star break will also give him nine days without games to recover from his injury.

But the injury throws a curve into the Warriors’ remaining schedule. They are 27-26, slated to play five Western Conference teams — including fellow contenders such as Oklahoma City Thunder, Minnesota Timberwolves, Portland Trail Blazers, Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers — in hopes of breaking out of the middle of the pack.

Curry was placed on the injury report with a contusion on that same left leg heading into Saturday’s game, but was cleared to play. He suffered the injury during the Warriors’ loss to Denver on Thursday.

He 11 games with a partial dislocation in his left shoulder earlier this year. The Warriors went 6-5 over those games.

“If he’s out then you move forward,” Kerr said. “We do have some games to lean on, some game film to look at and we’ll be ready for OKC regardless.”
