Stephen Curry frightens Warriors fans: "I'm not going to.."

Golden State Warriors lost yesterday in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Prior to that,  Stephen Curry expressed uncertainty about the time he will need to recover from his grade 1 left hamstring strain, as it is the first time he has suffered an injury of this kind:

"This is new to me, and from what I'm learning, there is a healing process that cannot be rushed. After a week, we will start reassessing day by day when it will be safe to even consider returning to play."

He described the situation as a "gut punch" and explained that he cannot rush his return:

"Hamstring injuries are tricky. They can deceive you into thinking you're fine. That's why I can't come back until I'm completely ready and without risk."

He is still far from being able to shoot without moving:

"That's still a ways off. Right now, the rehabilitation process is intense."

Regarding how the injury occurred:

"I was feeling great until that moment. I made a defensive rotation and felt something. I thought I could keep going, but I knew it could get worse if I continued playing."

Curry appreciated his team's victory without him and remained optimistic:

"We have confidence that we can win the series. If the guys can keep us alive, maybe we can have another series later on, and I can return when it's safe."

He also discussed the emotional aspect:

"It's emotionally tougher now that I'm older. I don't know how many more opportunities we'll have for a deep playoff run. That's why when Jimmy Butler arrived, I told Draymond [Green], 'This is our last journey together'."

Finally, he made it clear that he won't jeopardize his body prematurely:

"I'm not at a point yet where I have to resist the temptation to come back early. I don't want to set dates. All I know is I want to feel better every day."
