Golden State guard Stephen Curry was ruled out for the rest of the Warriors’ game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night after straining his left hamstring, the team announced.
Curry sustained the injury in the second quarter of the series-opening game of this Western Conference semifinal in Minneapolis. The contest marked the second game in three nights and in two cities for Curry and the Warriors, who knocked off the Houston Rockets on Sunday in a seven-game, first-round series.
Curry had 13 points in 13 minutes when he left the game. He shot 5 of 9 from the field and 3 of 6 from beyond the arc.
The Warriors led 44-31 at halftime.
Curry averaged 24.0 points during the series against Houston.
