Stephen Curry hamstring injury: When will Warriors star come back after going down vs Timberwolves?

Stephen Curry's early exit in Game 1 against the Timberwolves due to hamstring injury alarms Warriors fans.

The Golden State Warriors' playoff run hit a nerve-wracking snag on Tuesday night as Stephen Curry exited Game 1 against the Minnesota Timberwolves with a reportedly left hamstring injury.

“Steph Curry limps to the locker room in the second quarter. Looks like a left hamstring issue @NBCSWarriors,” Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area posted on X.

Curry got off to a solid start at the Target Center, putting up 13 points, one rebound, and one assist in just 13 minutes. He was going 5-of-9 overall and 3-of-6 from beyond the arc.

But midway through the second quarter, just during a timeout, Curry was noticeably uncomfortable and left the game.

“Steph Curry grabbing at his left hamstring and asking out of the game. Potential trouble for the Warriors,” Anthony Slater of The Athletic said in a X post.

“Steph Curry went right to the locker room during the timeout. He was grimacing,” he later added in the thread.

Curry's exit was immediate, and he didn’t return to the court before halftime.
