Stephen Curry has ankle sprain, to be reevaluated Tuesday

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has a right ankle sprain and will be reevaluated on Tuesday, the team announced on Saturday.

An MRI on the ankle showed "no structural damage to the joint," the team said in a release.

Curry injured the ankle late in a Thursday night loss to the Chicago Bulls.

The injury isn't expected to cost him many games, sources told ESPN. A clearer picture on a timeline is expected as the ankle responds to treatment in the next couple of days, sources said.

Curry is out for Saturday night's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Golden State next plays in San Antonio on Monday and in Dallas against the Mavericks on Wednesday.

The Warriors are 33-29 and 10th in the Western Conference standings.

Curry has had another outstanding season, leading the NBA with 290 3-pointers and the only player averaging 20 points, 40% 3-point shooting and 90% at the free throw line, according to ESPN Stats & Information.

Golden State is 0-3 without Curry this season.
