Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry limped off the floor at the Target Center early in the first half on Tuesday night with a hamstring injury.
Curry, in the second quarter of the Warriors’ Game 1 matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference semifinals, suddenly pulled up and reached for his left hamstring while on defense. He tried to bring the ball up the court, and seemed uncomfortable, and then reached for it again after trying, and failing, to make a floater in the middle of the lane.

Curry then immediately called for a sub and limped off the floor directly to the locker room at the next timeout.
The Warriors quickly ruled him out of the game with a left hamstring strain before halftime. It’s unclear how severe the injury is, or how long he may be sidelined. He had 13 points, one rebound and one assists while shooting 5-of-9 from the field with three 3-pointers when he left.
If Curry is out for any significant amount of time, it could quickly alter the series completely. The Warriors are just 48 hours removed from their road win over the Houston Rockets in Game 7 of the previous series, too, so Curry didn’t have much rest. He played 46 minutes in that contest.

Timberwolves forward Naz Reid left the game in the first half with an apparent hamstring injury, too. He dove for a loose ball and hit fans sitting courtside, and then limped off and went back to the locker room.
Despite losing Curry, the Warriors still took a 44-31 lead into the break at halftime.

Distressed Colorado fan files $100M against NFL for Shedeur Sanders’ draft slide
<!--> Shedeur Sanders' slide in the 2025 NFL Draft was quite surprising and shocking to many, as he fell to the fifth round before the Cleveland Browns took him with the 144th overall pick. It was also allegedly hurtful to someone other than Sanders.An anonymous fan has filed a $100 million lawsuit against the NFL in punitive damages for "the harm caused to the Plaintiff and the impact of the NFL's actions on his emotional well being," court documents obtained by MSNBC read.The complaint was filed by someone using the pseudonym "John Doe" in Georgia federal court.

Steph Curry’s hamstring injury gives the Warriors another mission: Buy him time
MINNEAPOLIS — Steve Kerr, in all his profundity, couldn’t say anything as he watched the superstar he’s coached for 11 seasons succumb to the suffocating disappointment. Kerr already knew, as tears fell from Steph Curry’s eyes, the heartbreak still fresh from the news that he sprained his left hamstring. Words weren’t what Curry needed. Or what Kerr had.AdvertisementSo the Golden State Warriors’ head coach, in this halftime moment Tuesday in the visiting locker room of Target Center, didn’t even try finding the right words. He just hugged his point guard.“That’s all I could do,” Kerr said after the Warriors won Game 1 of their second-round playoff series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. “I just feel so bad for him. Everything that he does. How much he cares.”Injuries in sports are so normalized as to often obscure their cruelty. The “next man […]
Přes čtyřicet Rusů odmítlo návrat, argumentují mušketýrským heslem
Sedmnáct uměleckých gymnastek, čtrnáct zástupců sportovní gymnastiky a dvanáct skokanů na trampolíně už by mohlo závodit na vrcholných akcích, pod vlajkou Mezinárodní gymnastické federace FIG. Další ale svolení nedostali, neboť nesplňovali kritéria k návratu.Podmínky pro účast na olympijských hrách v Paříži zahrnovaly například nevyjadřování podpory útoku na Ukrajinu či neúčast v ozbrojených složkách včetně armádních a policejních týmů, byť mezi sportovci schválenými FIG jsou ti, jejichž kariéra je spojena s moskevským CSKA.Tak jako v případě Angeliny Melnikovové, pravděpodobně největší hvězdy a majitelky čtyř olympijských medailí ve sportovní gymnastice. Ani ona ale zřejmě nezíská další cenné kovy na říjnovém světovém šampionátu v indonéské Jakartě, kde by se Rusové mohli po třech letech představit.„Všichni ruští sportovci, kteří obdrželi neutrální status, se rozhodli zdržet se účasti v nadcházejících soutěžích pod záštitou FIG,“ uvedla ruská federace, což zdůvodnila „četnými nepodloženými a zaujatými zamítnutími“. Federace tak jedná na popud samotných sportovců.Rusové se k návratu jen některých svých […]
What to know about the conclave and Italian soccer: Can the new Pope’s election postpone Serie A matches?
Getty Images On May 7 the College of Cardinals will meet in Rome inside the Sistine Chapel to elect the new Pope, as the death of Pope Francis on April 21 marked the end of the Pontificate of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, better known as Pope Francis. The Italian Serie A, as the Vatican is located in Rome, immediately decided to postpone the games that were due to be played on that Monday, and there is a chance one match might be delayed this weekend as well, as the conclave and the new Pope's election will make millions of pilgrims coming to Rome in few days to celebrate the new Bishop of Rome.
