Curry's Hamstring Injury Clouds Warriors' Playoff Hopes
Tap title to read story
Stephen Curry suffered a hamstring strain in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Minnesota Timberwolves, forcing him to exit the game. An MRI is scheduled for Wednesday to determine the severity (Grade I or II). A Grade I strain could sideline him for 7-10 days, while a Grade II strain could mean a much longer absence, potentially impacting the NBA Finals. Despite Curry's absence, the Warriors won Game 1, 99-88, with strong performances from Buddy Hield and Draymond Green. The team's success without Curry will depend on the severity of his injury and the continued strong play of its supporting cast. Game 2 is Thursday.
