The doctor provides Curry s hamstring strain, I m afraid I miss most of the competition

According to an article written by F/W reporter Gautam Varyl. Stephen Curry looks like he will miss multiple games with the Warriors.
Curry withdrew from Game 1 of the Western Conference Semi-Finals between the Golden State Warriors and the Minnesota Timberwolves due to a hamstring strain. Curry had to head to the locker room in the second quarter, and while he was listed as a daily routine, DPT's Dr. Evan Jeffries shared some of the grim situations of his return.
"The typical healing schedule is: Level I: 7-10 days, Level II: 3-6 weeks."
Curry will undergo an MRI on Wednesday. If Jeffries is right here, the best thing is that he missed Game 2 to 4. Curry may also miss Game 5 to be played at the target center on May 14. However, if it’s a Level II strain, Curry may also miss most NBA Finals, provided the Warriors can go that far. The finals will begin on June 5 and Game 7 may take place on June 22. If Curry is out, you won't believe the Warriors are in the finals, but they did beat the Timberwolves 99-88 away without him.
Hilder once again shone for the Warriors in Game 1 with 24 points (7-19 FG), 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. Hilder scored 33 points in Game 7 against the Houston Rockets, and he stood up at the best time for the Warriors. Green also contributed 18 points (6-13 FG), eight rebounds, six assists and two steals against the Timberwolves. Green led 4-6 from outside the arc in the second quarter to help the Warriors open the score.
However, it was a bit unrealistic to expect these two men to stay in this state, and the hope of the Warriors staying alive in the playoffs fell on Butler's shoulders during Curry's absence. Butler scored 20 points (7-20 FG), 11 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 steals against the Timberwolves. It's not a typical Warriors game, but it's enough to win Game 1. Butler said in a post-match press conference that he believes the Warriors can remain competitive without Curry.
"We all hope he will come back and score 30 points," Butler said. "That's for sure. But we want him to do what's best for himself, and it's best for our team in the long run. But until then, we can hold on to the victory. I know we can." The Warriors had a 7-5 record without Curry in the regular season, which should make them believe they can hold on to the victory. They have now also grabbed the home advantage in this series, and from the current situation, they are in an advantage.
Interestingly, this is the first time in Curry's career that he was missing due to a hamstring injury. The 11-time All-Star dealt with ankle issues shortly after entering the league and experienced thumb injuries in these playoffs, but his hamstrings never caused him a big problem. Considering Curry's moves in the game, this is one of his most worrying injuries. Hopefully this won’t be a common problem for the 37-year-old in the future. I don't hope this will affect a turning point at the peak of his late career.
