Stephen Curry has missed five games for the Golden State Warriors due to a knee issue. He's now guaranteed to miss at least five more.

The Warriors have ruled out the former MVP for the next 10 days, at which point he will be re-evaluated according to ESPN's Anthony Slater. An MRI reportedly came back clean Thursday, but the pain and swelling has persisted.

Sitting out Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics means Curry will have missed 17 games this season. His next missed game will make him ineligible for the NBA's regular season awards, breaking a five-year streak of All-NBA teams.
