If you're a basketball fan who bought tickets for Golden State's one and only visit to Target Center on Sunday afternoon for an ABC game, bad news:

After last night's home game against San Antonio, the Warriors ruled out two-time league MVP Stephen Curry for games tonight at Portland and Sunday against the Wolves.

According to the Warriors, Curry in Thursday's game experienced issues -- the team called it a "tweak" -- for his right ankle for the fourth time this season. He left Thursday's game in the second quarter and did not return.

Don't cry for the Warriors, though, Warriors coach Steve Kerr told reporters Thursday.

"We still have three All Stars," Kerr said. "We still have a lot of talent. Nobody is going to feel sorry for us because we only have three All Stars left when Steph goes out."

Kevin Durant, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson all are due at Target Center Sunday at 2:30 p.m. to play a Wolves team that has lost three consecutive games for the first time this season.
