With Steph Curry sidelined due to a hamstring injury, the Golden State Warriors couldn't afford many missteps in Game 2 against the Minnesota Timberwolves. However, an ice-cold start plagued the Warriors from the opening tip on Thursday night.
While the Warriors couldn't find the bottom of the net to start the game, the Timberwolves took advantage. After three minutes and a flurry of 3-pointers, the Timberwolves jumped to a 13-0 lead over the Warriors. With the Warriors struggling early, Steve Kerr emptied Golden State's bench, cycling through 14 different players in the first half of Game 2.
