The Golden State Warriors are on the verge of elimination from the 2025 NBA Playoffs. They are clearly missing the services of two-time NBA Most Valuable Player Steph Curry, particularly his offense, as the Dubs have fallen behind in their second-round series against the Minnesota Timberwolves, 3-1.

Even Draymond Green says the Warriors are better off playing 'the long game' with their franchise legend's hamstring injury.

The general consensus was that the Warriors needed to figure out a way to win at least once at home, which would guarantee a Game 6 at Chase Center on May 18. Members of the franchise told reporters that Curry's injury probably wouldn't allow him to come back before then, and a Game 6 return was the best-case scenario.
