The Golden State Warriors are likely to be without star point guard Stephen Curry once again when they take on Portland Trail Blazers in Game 4 of their second-round playoff series.

The Warriors have listed Curry as doubtful for Monday's game in Portland. Golden State holds a 2-1 series lead following the Trail Blazers' 120-108 victory on Saturday.

Curry has not played since spraining his knee on April 24 in game four of Golden State's first-round series against the Houston Rockets. The NBA's leading scorer also missed two games against the Rockets because of an unrelated ankle injury.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Curry has been getting better every day, but the Warriors are not going to push him to return. The Warriors had four days off between games two and three against Portland, leading many to believe the layoff would have given Curry enough time to heal.
