SAN FRANCISCO >> The Warriors will have to continue their sizzling run in the Western Conference playoff race without star Steph Curry for at least this weekend.

Curry, who suffered a contused pelvis in a fall during Thursday night’s home win over Toronto, was not on the team flight Friday for the start of a crucial six-game trip. Curry won’t play today in Atlanta and will be reevaluated on Monday, the day before Golden State plays at Miami.

The team said an MRI exam showed “no structural damage” in a statement Friday morning on the social media platform X.

Draymond Green was on the bench when the Raptors’ Jonathan Mogbo crashed into an airborne Curry. But the Warriors forward’s ear still picked up the sickening “thud” of the franchise’s greatest player slamming to the court late in the third quarter of their 117-114 win.

“He hit that ground hard, and you could hear it,” Green said after the game. “Crazy. Obviously, a very scary moment for us and for him. Hopefully, he’s good.”

Coach Steve Kerr said after the game there was some consideration to Curry returning late in the tight game.

“He went down to the training room with (head trainer) Rick (Celebrini), and Steph thought he’d be OK to come back in, and the decision was made not to risk it,” Kerr said.

The Warriors have won 10 of their past 14 games to solidify their hold on the No. 6 spot in the Western Conference playoff race. Entering play Friday, only three games separated No. 2 seed Denver and the Warriors.

Should Curry be out for more than just the game against the Hawks, the Warriors can rely on at least one player to carry the offense for an extended time.

Jimmy Butler, who had a 16-point, 11-rebound and 12-assist triple-double against Toronto, ratcheted up his scoring aggression once Curry left. He also leaped for a clutch block, later joking that his knees were aching after that show of athleticism.

“He understands the situation, and he wants the ball. He asks for it in different areas and attacks,” Kerr said.

But even Butler, who has made a career of taking offensively challenged teams far beyond their expectations, said there’s no chance the Warriors can replace Curry’s production.

When Curry is on the court, the team has an offensive rating of 115.1, good for 10th in the league. When he is on the bench, that rating craters to 107.5, which would be the third-worst in the NBA.

“Whether he’s with us or whether he’s not, and hopefully he is, that’s just more perfect basketball we’re going to have to play,” Butler said. “We can’t afford to turn the ball over; we can’t afford to foul, because we don’t have the one individual that can automatically get us back into the game.”

Green agreed.

“The margin of error goes way down when he’s not out there,” Green said. “We’ve got to understand that and act accordingly.”

With the team embarking on its last long trip of the season, the Warriors will need players beyond Butler to step up their production if Curry misses significant time.

Curry has played in 60 of the team’s 70 games, and has also battled hip, ankle, knee, back and thumb injuries this season.

“We just need them to be who they are, to be a master in your role, and I think everybody’s doing a great job with that,” Green said. “No one person in the NBA, not just on our team, but no one person in the NBA is going to be Steph Curry. So we’ve got to collectively try to pick up the slack. ”

That collective will include guards Moses Moody and Brandin Podziemski, forward Jonathan Kuminga and center Quinten Post. The latter three combined for 49 against Toronto, but Moody also got a shoutout from Green despite not scoring a single point.

“Moses played 28 minutes and couldn’t make a shot. That says a lot about the trust that coaches have in him, and he’s earned it,” Green said.
