The Golden State Warriors won Game 1 of their second-round series with the Minnesota Timberwolves Tuesday, claiming home-court advantage as the lower seed, but it came at a high cost. After leaving the game with a hamstring injury, star guard Stephen Curry was diagnosed Wednesday with a Grade 1 strain, as reported by ESPN's Shams Charania.
With the Warriors expecting to play at least the next week without Curry, which would mean missing the next three games at a minimum, they'll have to find a way to continue Tuesday's shooting-driven success after Curry left the game to stay in position to win the series.
