Golden State Warriors:Curry's Ankle Injury Means Monta Ellis Isn't Going Anywhere

Back if Stephen Curry was healthy, the achievability of the Warriors trading Monta Ellis afore the NBA barter borderline was about a certainty. But now, with Curry acutely aggressive a alternating abate abrasion at the accomplished old age of 23, affairs accept changed.

Without Curry and Ellis, the Warriors accept nothing, which agency they can't barter Ellis until they accept a added complete compassionate of the admeasurement of Curry's injury. And unfortunately, with the barter borderline looming just a few canicule away, they ability not get abundant time to accomplish that assessment. So, for now, Ellis isn't traveling anywhere.

For a while, it looked as admitting Golden State didn't charge both Ellis and Curry. In his aboriginal two seasons with the Warriors, Curry bankrupt out, averaging 18.0 credibility and 5.9 assists per bold from 2009-2011. Ellis, currently the NBA's ninth-leading scorer, became dispensable for the Warriors and a prime ambition for teams searching for a 26-year-old bouncer who's averaged 19.6 credibility and 4.4 assists per bold throughout his career.

But then, in backward February, Curry sprained a bond in his appropriate foot—the aforementioned bottom he'd afflicted at the alpha of the division that kept him out for two weeks. He alternate on Saturday adjoin the Mavericks, alone to leave the bold afterwards 16 account because he formed the aforementioned ankle.

The admeasurement of Curry's abrasion is alien at the time (it's classified as "mild"), but seeing as this is the third affair he's had with the abate in this strike-shortened season, things aren't searching good. And now that the Warriors don't accept Curry—at atomic for the time being—how can they let go of Ellis?

It's too bad, because the absorption in Ellis was high. SFGate.com's Rusty Simmons listed 19 teams that would be absorbed in a swap. But there's no way the Warriors can complete a deal—unless a phenomenon happens and Curry's abate heals itself assuredly overnight.
