Golden State Warriors point guard Steph Curry suffered a Grade 1 left hamstring strain on Tuesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The two-time MVP is expected to miss at least one week, according to Shams Charania of ESPN.
The Warriors beat the Timberwolves in Game 1 to take a 1-0 lead in the best-of-seven series. Game 2 is on Thursday. Curry will miss his first playoff game since the 2018 Western Conference semifinals.
"An exact return timeline will be based on how Curry responds to rehab with his first career muscle strain, sources said," Charania wrote. "He is likely to be out through at least Game 4 on Monday. After that, Game 5 would be on May 14, followed by Game 6 on May 18 and Game 7 on May 20."
Curry is averaging 22.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.1 assists in the 2025 playoffs while shooting 47.7% from the field, 40.0% from 3 and 89.3% from the foul line. The Warriors beat the Houston Rockets in the first round in seven games.

As Charania said, Curry's return timeline will be based on how the future Hall of Famer responds to treatment. Jeff Stotts of In Street Clothes posted on X that Curry could return for Game 6 or 7 if the Warriors star misses the average time lost for Grade 1 hamstring strains.
Draymond Green, who has won four championships with Curry, isn't panicking about Curry's injury since the Warriors have Jimmy Butler.
"We know what Jimmy's capable of," Green said. "Jimmy's capable of carrying a team. He carried a team to the Finals twice. So we won't panic. We will figure out what that means."
