BREAKING NEWS: Golden State Warriors Suspend Stephen Curry for “Undisclosed Locker Room Incident”
In a stunning and unexpected move, Golden State Warriors General Manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. and team owner Joe Lacob have announced the suspension of superstar guard Stephen Curry, citing an “internal matter” related to a reported incident in the team’s locker room following a preseason workout.
According to team sources, the incident — which occurred late Monday evening — involved a heated exchange between Curry and an unnamed member of the Warriors coaching staff. While details remain unclear, insiders say the situation escalated beyond verbal disagreement, prompting leadership to take immediate disciplinary action.
“We have the utmost respect for Steph — he’s the heart and soul of this franchise,” Dunleavy said during a brief press conference Tuesday morning. “But we also have a responsibility to uphold a culture of accountability and professionalism across all levels of the organization. After careful review, we’ve decided to issue a temporary team suspension.”
Curry, a four-time NBA champion and two-time MVP, has not issued a public statement. A spokesperson for Curry described the situation as “an internal disagreement blown out of proportion” and assured fans that the star guard “remains fully committed to the team.”
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr declined to comment, saying only, “We’ll handle this as a family.”
The suspension is expected to last no more than one week, with Curry likely missing the Warriors’ first two preseason games. NBA insiders are calling the move “unprecedented” given Curry’s legendary status and leadership role within the team.
