The last thing the Warriors need right now is a Steph Curry injury, but that’s what they are dealing with early in Game 1 against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Less than four minutes into the second quarter of the Western Conference semifinal opener Tuesday at Target Center, Curry tweaked his left hamstring on a defensive possession. He grabbed the back of his left leg on several occasions.
The Warriors ruled Curry out a few minutes later.

Curry stayed in the game but after Draymond Green hit a 3-pointer to give the Warriors a 30-20 lead, the Timberwolves called a timeout and the two-time NBA MVP walked to Golden State’s locker room for evaluation.
Curry was playing well at the time of the injury, having made 5 of 9 field-goal attempts for 13 points.
Curry has been playing through a right thumb injury he has been dealing with for the last few months.
