Curry said Monday during his exit interview that he's dealing with a Grade 3 right ankle sprain and hopes to begin basketball activities in a couple of weeks, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
Curry suffered the injury at the beginning of March and was shut down for the rest of the season. Lingering ankle issues plagued the sharpshooter all season, and he finished with just 43 appearances (four starts), averaging 5.3 points -- his lowest mark since 2014-15 when he appeared in just two games. Curry has one non-guaranteed year remaining on his current contract.

Hornets' Seth Curry: Out for remainder of season
Rotowire
Hornets head coach Steve Clifford said Wednesday that Curry (ankle) won't return this season, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports. "Those two guys are not going to be able to come back," Clifford said of Curry and Cody Martin (ankle). "And it doesn't mean we can't play well. It doesn't mean we can't be proud of how we play. But that's just where we are at. Listen, it's not ideal."
Curry hasn't played since March 1 due to a right ankle sprain and will be shut down for good. After coming over from Dallas in a Feb. 8 trade, Curry appeared in eight games for Charlotte and averaged 9.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 three-pointers in 19.8 minutes while shooting 44.1 percent from the field and 32.1 percent from downtown. The 33-year-old shooting guard will enter the second season of a two-year, $8 million deal in 2024-25, though his salary doesn't become fully guaranteed until one day before the 2024 NBA Draft.

Mavericks' Seth Curry: Won't play Saturday
Rotowire
Curry (illness) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Warriors, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.
The sharpshooter was initially listed as questionable, but he won't suit up to face Golden State. His absence won't hurt the Mavs' rotation too much, but the lack of depth Dallas has in the backcourt is concerning at least. Curry is averaging just 5.0 points, 1.6 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.0 triples across 13.3 minutes per game this season. His next chance to suit up will come Monday versus the Jazz.
