Warriors depth, defense overwhelms Timberwolves in Game 1; Curry lost to injury
- The Golden State Warriors defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 99-88 in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinal on Tuesday night in Minneapolis.
- The Warriors overcame the absence of Stephen Curry, who left early with a strained left hamstring and was ruled out for the game around nine minutes into the second quarter.
- Despite Curry's injury, the Warriors built an 80-60 lead entering the fourth quarter through strong defense led by Draymond Green and timely shooting from role players, while the Timberwolves struggled with a historically poor 0-for-15 first half in three-point shooting.
- Jimmy Butler III, facing his former team and booed by the crowd, scored 20 points, and Anthony Edwards led Minnesota with 23 points, but their comeback effort fell short in front of a roaring Target Center audience.
- Warriors coach Steve Kerr said they are preparing for Curry to miss Game 2 on Thursday, with his status to be determined after an MRI, signaling uncertainty about his availability in the coming series games.
