5 of 8 three-pointers and 24 points! Two consecutive games were broken to save the Warriors, Curry injured and turned into Clay

On May 7, in the NBA playoffs, the Warriors challenged the Timberwolves away. Curry left the court in the second quarter, but the Warriors were in excellent form, establishing a 23-point lead at one time, and withstood the Timberwolves' counterattack in the last quarter, successfully defeating the Timberwolves 99-88 away, achieving a good start in the semi-finals, leading 1-0 with a big score, and also gaining a home advantage.

When Curry left the court due to injury, the outside world was not optimistic that the Warriors could win the away game, but they relied on their excellent defensive ability to prevent the Timberwolves from entering the state, and kept suppressing the opponent and gained a maximum lead of 23 points. After that, the Warriors' offensive condition declined, but at critical moments, people always stood up to score points, and among them, Hilder is the key player. With Butler's poor touch, he hit 2 consecutive three-pointers from the outside, directly killing the suspense of the game.

Hilder was not in good shape in the first half, and he only scored 2 points with free throws, but after Curry got injured and retreated, he found his sight and suddenly broke out in the third quarter. He made 5 of 9 shots in a single quarter, scored 16 points in 3 of 5 three-pointers, helping the team take the initiative on the field; in the last quarter, when the Timberwolves counterattacked and chased points, Hilder made 2 consecutive three-pointers to help the team directly lock in the victory.

Hilder played for 39 minutes in the whole game, made 7 of 19 shots, 5 of 8 three-pointers, 5 of 5 free throws, scored 24 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, with a plus-negative value + 22 highest in the game. This is also his two consecutive games that broke out. In the last tiebreak battle with the Rockets, he directly hit 9 three-pointers and scored 33 points. He saved the team in two consecutive games. In addition, Hilder has scored 20+5 three-pointers in two consecutive playoff games and made 0 mistakes at the same time, becoming the third place in history, comparable to Seth Curry and Grayson Allen.

After Curry was injured, Hilder transformed into Klay Thompson and stood up to save the team. When Clay chose to leave the Warriors, the team chose Hilde to fill the vacancy. His performance at the beginning of the season was very strong, which also made the team forget Clay. But afterwards, his performance returned to mediocrity. He didn't expect to regain his form in the playoffs, especially at such a difficult moment, his explosion is something the team needs very much.
