Malik Curry - College Basketball News & Rumors

19 points against KU Curry logged 19 points (4-9 FG, 11-11 FT), two assists and one steal over 24 minutes during Thursday's 87-63 loss to Kansas.

Impact Curry has been fantastic down the stretch for West Virginia. Over the last six games he is putting up 18.2 points on 48 percent shooting all while coming off the bench. West Virginia may get an invite to the NIT where Curry will surely be a factor.

Another strong game Curry racked up 17 points (8-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 loss to Oklahoma.

Impact The one positive despite West Virginia's slump in Big 12 play down the stretch has been the emergence of the Old Dominion transfer. Over the last three games, Curry is putting up 21.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 1.7 three-pointers per contest and shooting 51 percent from the field. Curry will look to stay hot on Saturday against TCU.

Seeing more point guard minutes Curry ended Saturday's 82-81 loss to Texas with 27 points (7-15 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 11-13 FT), one rebound and two steals in 28 minutes.

Impact Curry has seen a major boost in playing time of late, as starting point guard Kedrian Johnson missed a game last week with a hip injury and only played seven minutes in his return Saturday. In turn, Curry has chipped in performances of 19 and 27 points, making him an under-the-radar option to look for in daily formats. He and the Mountaineers are highly unlikely to be going dancing, but he'll look to end the season on a high note with matchups against Oklahoma (Tuesday) and TCU (Saturday).

Puts in 14 points off bench Curry produced 14 points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 10-11 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 18 minutes during Tuesday's 79-63 win over Iowa State.

Impact Curry bounced back from a two-game stretch in which he totaled just two points. He did a great job getting the the hoop and drawing contact. It helped West Virginia snap a seven-game losing streak. Curry will look to provide some energy off the bench again on Saturday against Oklahoma State.

Leads team in scoring for second straight game Curry had 19 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 77-68 loss to Baylor.

Impact Curry's two highest scoring games of the season have now both come in the last two games. He isn't a great shooter, but Curry is very hard to stay in front of and can get to the hoop at will when he's on. He is an interesting player to keep an eye on over the next few weeks on a team that desperately needs more scoring help.

Explodes for 23 points off bench Curry closed Saturday's 85-59 loss to Kansas with 23 points (6-13 FG, 11-11 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes.

Impact In a game where Taz Sherman and Sean McNeil were pretty much shut down, Curry really impressed off the bench. This was easily the best game of the season for the Old Dominion transfer. If he can continue to play with this confidence going forward, it wouldn't surprise if he scoots his way into the starting lineup before the end of the season.

JANUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Plays 26 minutes in win Curry (knee) had five points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 70-60 win against Oklahoma State.

Impact Curry was considered a game-time decision due to the knee injury, but he ended up playing his second-highest minutes total of the season. He's averaging 6.9 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 18.3 minutes per contest this season.

JANUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Warming up Tuesday Curry (knee) was seen warming up Tuesday, Blue Gold News reports.

Impact Curry is still expected to be a game time decision, though it's an encouraging sign that the senior guard is warming up. Curry averages 7.1 points and 1.9 rebounds in 17.8 minutes per game this season.

JANUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Will be a game-time decision Curry (knee) is expected to be a game-time decision against Oklahoma State on Tuesday, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Curry has been inconsistent for West Virginia this season but he has shown the capability to be a legitimate scoring option for WVU. Curry left the game early against Kansas State with what appeared to be a tweak in his knee. The fact that Curry is a game-time decision means he avoided a serious injury so whether or he plays tonight he shouldn't miss a ton of time.

JANUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Helped to locker room Saturday Curry needed assistance to get to the locker room during Saturday's game against Kansas State with an apparent right knee injury, Ethan Bock of West Virginia Sports Now reports.

Impact Given the nature of Curry's departure, it seems unlikely he will be able to rejoin the action Saturday, Assuming he can't return Saturday, more information on his status should surface ahead of Tuesday's game versus Oklahoma State.

JANUARY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies 12 Wednesday Curry chipped in 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 82-52 victory over Youngstown State.

Impact Curry's 12 points marked just the third time all season he has finished in double figures in the scoring column, and it didn't hurt that he matched his season-high for rebounds and posted a new season-high total for assists either. That being said, the blowout nature of the game likely factored into his extra production, so it's quite possible his playing time will be scaled back a bit when Big 12 play starts following the holidays.

DECEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Warming up with team Curry (ankle) was spotted warming up ahead of Wednesday's game against Youngstown State, Blue Gold News reports.

Impact Curry was helped to the locker room with an ankle injury in last week's game against UAB. He appears to be moving all right in warmups, so it looks like he will give it a go in the team's final game before conference play.

Helped to locker room Curry required assistance to leave to the locker room during Saturday's game against UAB, Bob Hertzel of the Times West Virginian reports.

Impact Curry departed with an apparent ankle injury and was unable to walk to the room on his own. Prior to his departure, Curry had racked up two points, two rebounds and an assist early in the contest. Look for more clarity on his situation to surface in the near future.

DECEMBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Contributes across board in win Curry racked up nine points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 74-55 win over Bellarmine.

Impact Curry had a solid all around showing in this rout. He is now averaging 8.4 points and 1.6 steals in 18.3 minutes per contest. Curry has yet to start a game this season after starting every game in two years with Old Dominion. WVU will take on Radford on Saturday.

DECEMBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient off bench Friday Curry recorded 10 points (5-5 FG, 0-1 FT), three assists and two steals in 12 minutes during Friday's 74-59 victory over Pittsburgh.

Impact Curry was thought to have a bigger role this season after coming over from Old Dominion and averaging 15.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.9 steals per contest last year. So far Kendrian Johnson has gotten the start at point in the first two games and has played more. That could change later this season, however, but for now it looks like Johnson, Taz Sherman, and Sean McNeil in the backcourt.
