After missing the Golden State Warriors' last three games due to a mild-to-moderate left groin strain, superstar guard Stephen Curry will continue to sit before being re-evaluated in 10 days, the Warriors announced Wednesday.

Curry will still travel with the team on its upcoming road trip, which includes Thursday's marquee matchup with the Houston Rockets, Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks, and Sunday's contest versus the San Antonio Spurs. He's also scheduled to miss games against the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder, Portland Trail Blazers, and Sacramento Kings.

The 30-year-old initially suffered the injury on Nov. 8 against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Even on the star-studded Warriors, Curry's presence in on the floor continues to have a profound impact on the team's success. In 399 minutes with Curry in the game, Golden State has outscored opponents by 13.5 points per 100 possessions; in 326 Curry-less minutes, the Warriors' net rating drops to a more modest 4.2 points per 100 possessions.

The Warriors have gone 2-1 in Curry's absence, though attention of late has turned from the hardcourt to the locker room after a heated altercation between Warriors frontcourt mates Kevin Durant and Draymond Green following Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
