HOUSTON (AP) – Stephen Curry’s sprained right ankle is feeling better but he isn’t sure if he will be able to play on Thursday night in Game 3 of Golden State’s first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets.

Curry practiced on Wednesday but says: “Based on how I feel right now I probably couldn’t play. But tomorrow it could be different.”

Curry missed Game 2 with the injury after he was hurt in the opener of the series. The Warriors overcame his absence to get a 115-106 victory and take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.

Last season’s MVP says that he doesn’t feel like he could play right now because he isn’t able to “go full speed or game speed, I should say and have confidence in the moves I need to do.”
