San Francisco. Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry completed a full practice Tuesday and participated in a five-on-five scrimmage as part of his rehab from a right knee injury that forced him to leave the Jan. 30 game against Detroit and sidelined him for weeks. Coach Steve Kerr said Curry will miss Wednesday's game and is 'doubtful' for Thursday while staff monitor his response; team officials and medical staff will evaluate post-scrimmage recovery with an eye toward potential clearance before the Play-In tournament beginning April 15.
