An emotional Curry spoke to the media, revealing that he will miss at least a week of action, raising concerns about his availability for crucial playoff games ahead.
Curry, visibly upset in the locker room at halftime, described the moment of injury as unexpected. “I felt great the whole game,” he said, reflecting on the defensive play that led to his injury. “I made a pivot move and felt something. I didn’t think it was anything serious at first.” However, he quickly realized the potential severity of the situation, acknowledging that returning too soon could worsen the injury.
The Warriors now face a significant challenge without their star player, as Curry emphasized the importance of a natural healing process. “I’m not rushing it,” he stated, understanding the tricky nature of hamstring injuries.
