On Tuesday night, the Warriors were on their path to face the Timberwolves in Game 1 of the West Semi-Final. In the second quarter, Steph Curry won the basket with a driving 14-foot floater.
The veteran PG was seen grabbing his hamstring and was sank about 30 seconds later. Curry ended the game and did not return to Golden State. Luckily they supported a 99-88 victory in Game 1 and a Minnesota victory. However, coach Steve Kerr said the team is running as if it weren’t available for Game 2. He has an MRI on Wednesday.

In addition to his hamstring injury, 37-year-old Steph Curry was already battling a thumb injury with his shooter. Draymond Green said Golden State “don’t panic” if curry has to miss time. Game 2 is Thursday night. Steph Curry will have an MRI on Wednesday to decide how much he will miss.
