With Steph Curry fully healthy and back in the fold a season ago, the Golden State Warriors, at times, looked like the Golden State Warriors again. They failed to make the postseason, but things are looking up in 2022 (Vegas has them as one of the top three favorites to win the NBA Finals).
The last and I mean LAST thing Warriors fans needed right now was another freak injury to one of their stars like they've dealt with with both Curry and Klay Thompson the last few seasons.

Another, equally terrifying angle for your viewing nightmares:
That sound you heard was a loud, collective PHEW in the Bay. Curry made it out alive, just like every other person who has stood in front of Phil's famous flop.
