Stephen Curry has been cleared for shooting drills and light on-court workouts despite a strained left hamstring, giving him a chance to play for the Golden State Warriors if they force a Game 6 against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Warriors reevaluated Curry on Wednesday before playing their must-win Game 5 without him and announced he was “making good progress” in his recovery from the injury suffered in the opener of the second-round series.
If the Warriors beat the Timberwolves, Curry will be reevaluated on Saturday, ahead of Game 6 in San Francisco on Sunday. There’s a three-day break scheduled between Games 5 and 6, affording Curry extra time to heal.
Curry traveled with the team to Minneapolis, but he had already been ruled out for the fourth consecutive game when the official injury report was released on Tuesday.
Curry’s first career hamstring strain, one of several injuries that have waylaid star players during these NBA playoffs, has made it predictably harder for the Warriors to space their offense and generate scoring. They are averaging 17 turnovers per game in the series and shooting only 36% from 3-point range.

Fantasy Baseball Rankings Movers: Jacob Wilson, Javier Baez surge; Dalton Rushing adds to catcher surplus
Most every week, Scott White will highlight some of the more notable changes to his rest-of-season rankings. You'll find said rankings here and are urged to bookmark them if you haven't already. There's no better resource for gauging player value throughout the long season. You could ask 100 people what the weakest position in Fantasy Baseball is and get the same answer. Or maybe not, actually, because the answer is so obviously catcher that most respondents would presume you mean "aside from catcher." But something is happening at catcher this year. In leagues that require only one, there are way too many quality options to go around. The issue is exacerbated by the recent promotion of Moises Ballesteros, an impressive hitting talent who was batting .368 at Triple-A. He's arriving not long after Agustin Ramirez, another top catcher prospect who […]
