Stephen Curry was scheduled to suit up for his sixth birthday game in his career with the Golden State Warriors on Saturday in Milwaukee. However, Curry’s birthday bout with Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks has been postponed.
The NBA is currently on hiatus until further notice due to the coronavirus pandemic. The next set of Golden State Warriors games are on hold for at least 30 days.
While Curry won’t be joining his teammates on the court for his 32nd birthday, a pair of Warriors shared well wishes for the two-time Most Valuable Player on social media.
Damion Lee wished his brother-in-law and backcourt teammate a happy birthday on Instagram. In his birthday message, Lee compared Golden State’s six-time All-Star to singer Carl Thomas.

Curry has only played a handful of games with Lee and Paschall due to a broken hand injury and an illness that has limited him for a majority of the 2019-20 season.
When the Warriors are cleared to return from the COVID-19 hold, Curry and the Warriors will have 17 games remaining on the schedule.
