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).

MINNESOTA – Steph Curry’s hamstring strain will keep him out for Game 2 of the Warriors’ playoff series against the Minnesota Timberwolves — and likely several more games.

It's no secret Stephen Curry is the engine that makes the Golden State Warriors run. With precise shooting ability from distances that seemed unfathomable and constant movement that pulls numerous defenders with him, Curry has been the driving force behind the Warriors' success in the last 10 years.
