Curry left game 1 of the western conference semifinals after suffering a grade 1 left hamstring injury. After the MRI report came out today it was revealed that Curry will be sidelined for at least one week, meaning he will not play in games 2,3 or 4, and his potential return date is game 5. Hamstring injuries are a tricky one to recover from during a postseason run. While the timetable for his return is a week, an injury like this is something that can be easily aggravated again after he returns. It is likely that Curry will have to play through a certain level of discomfort when he returns to the court. Some other players that have suffered hamstring injuries include Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton, who had to miss several weeks of lay and multiple games. Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas suffered the same injury as Curry did back in mid-March, and he wound up missing the rest of the season. The time that a player is sidelined with an injury like this tends to be a case by case thing, but for the most part it tends to be longer than what Curry is currently slated to miss. This is also the first muscle strain injury of Curry’s career, so Golden State has to be very cautious and attentive with how he rehabs from this injury. All in all this is a huge blow for Golden State, and will definitely make their path to winning this series even more difficult. Follow me on Twitter. Editorial StandardsForbes Accolades
