According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Stephen Curry is not expected to play until Game 6. A devastating blow considering how competitive this series has been and what can be expected for the future.
“He will be reevaluated on Wednesday,” said Shams Charania. “My understanding is it will probably not be any point until Game 6 at the earliest.”
Curry has been instrumental during Golden State’s postseason run, which saw him propel the Warriors past the Houston Rockets and hopefully against Minnesota.
Per the man himself, the 37-year-old has never suffered a hamstring injury before in his professional career. For those unaware, Curry is dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring strain.
During this year’s postseason, the future Hall of Fame guard is averaging 22.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 5.1 assists in eight appearances.
