New Report Reveals Warriors’ Immediate Steph Curry ‘Plan’ After Unfortunate MRI Results

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry.

The Golden State Warriors are in a deep hole right now. Despite winning Game 1 of their second-round NBA playoffs series against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night, the Warriors lost Steph Curry to a hamstring injury that will now force him to miss time.

On Wednesday, the Warriors revealed Curry’s MRI results. The team announced that the 37-year-old has been diagnosed with a Grade 1 hamstring strain and that Curry will be re-evaluated in one week.

 

This means that the former back-to-back MVP will miss Game 2 in Minnesota on Thursday, as well as Games 3 and 4 at Chase Center on Saturday and Monday, respectively. Based on the Warriors’ update, Curry will be re-evaluated in a week, potentially giving him a chance to play in Game 5 on May 14 (Wednesday).

A new report from Warriors beat reporter Anthony Slater of The Athletic has shed more light on the current situation. According to Slater, the team already has an immediate plan of action laid out for their superstar point guard.

“The current plan is for Steph Curry to stay in Minnesota with the team and begin his rehab process with Rick Celebrini on the road,” Slater reported on X. “Team flies back to the Bay Area after the game tomorrow night.”

The report further indicates that this hamstring strain is Curry’s “first soft issue” injury since he suffered an adductor strain back in Nov. 2018. It took him three weeks to recover from that injury before being able to return to action.

While there is no denying that this is an unfortunate development for Curry and the Warriors, fans can take a bit of solace in the fact that this injury could have been much worse.

The fact of the matter is that Curry still has a good chance of returning to action in this series. For now, though, Golden State has no other choice but to live life without him for at least the next few games.
