Curry, I won t choose to return with injuries! The Warriors are waiting for him to return

On May 9, in the G1 game, Curry, who suffered a left hamstring strain, decided to choose Minnesota, who was away from home with the team, to cheer for his teammates while treating.

It is worth noting that today Curry appeared at the Warriors training ground and was interviewed by the media, talking about his comeback plan: "I believe that the team can win the game and buy me more recovery time. I hope that I can not only survive this round of series, but also advance to the Western Conference Finals, so that I can come back after full recovery and safely return to the court without posing too much risk to my body."

Curry's words are not just about missing 2-3 games, he is likely to miss the entire series.

Curry suffered a first-degree strain on his left hamstring. According to NBA medical experts' analysis, the normal fastest recovery period is 7-10 days.

Considering that Curry is 37 years old, based on the maximum length of 10 days, Curry will make a comeback in G6 as soon as possible.

If the Warriors lose three games in a row, the score in the series will be 1-3, and the Warriors are almost on the verge of being eliminated.

Curry mentioned the conditions for comeback in the interview: first, 100% recovery, and second, it does not pose too much risk to the body.

If Curry returns, in order to avoid capsizing in the gutter, the Timberwolves will be ready to fight Curry physically and double-team them, which is likely to cause injury and recurrence to Curry.

Yesterday, Guo Ailun talked about Curry's injury on a basketball show: "Don't fight hard, wait 100% healthy. I chose to force my return due to a hamstring strain, which caused repeated injuries."

Therefore, the Warriors management considers the dual considerations of overall interests and Curry's health, and they will not risk Curry's return with injuries.

So, Lao Liu hopes that Butler can lead the Warriors to create miracles, defeat the Timberwolves in one fell swoop, and advance to the Western Conference Final.

But then again, if Edwards loses to the Warriors without Curry, then wouldn't he? The Lakers are even more...
