The Warriors will have to finish the first game of their series against the Timberwolves without Stephen Curry. The base abandoned the clash in the second quarter after starting to limit after an offensive action, at which time it was replaced to set up to changing rooms and confirm soon that it would not return to the track.
Curry began to show discomfort in the left hamstring after scoring the floater He put 20-27 on the scoreboard with just under nine minutes for the break, and left the track when Minnesota requested dead time just half a minute later. After a brief recognition, the Warriors confirmed that the base had suffered a muscular distension and that it would not return to the clash, putting Kerr’s ropes against the debut in their debut in these conference semifinals.
Steph was transmitting good feelings in the clash, as he had scored 13 points in less than 13 minutes with a 3/6 in triples. His presence on the track was being decisive for his people, who with him on the bench suffered much more to generate good situations despite a couple of triples of Draymond Green gave oxygen to the team shortly after Curry was replaced.
A completely new injury
The lesion has occurred in an area that historically has never given problems to the base, which makes it quite difficult to determine what can be its reach and how many matches of the tie can be lost. You can only expect it to be a minor issue and that does not spend too much time until we can see Steph on the track. Otherwise, the Warriors season could have the days counted.
