The Golden State Warriors suffered a devastating Game 4 loss Sunday night, falling to the Minnesota Timberwolves 117-110.
Now down 3-1 in the series, the Warriors have to muster up three straight wins to get back to the Western Conference Finals.
Following the loss, Curry commented about his availability and how badly he wants to be able to play.
“Even if I wanted to be Superman, I couldn’t,” Curry told the media.
This was after Draymond had commented post-game that they don’t need Superman (Curry), and they need to figure out how to win regardless of whether he plays or not.
The original report was that Curry could be back for game 6 at the earliest, but that looks very unlikely.

The four-time champion has 104 total playoff victories and has won 24 total playoff series, establishing himself as one of the winningest players ever.
So far this postseason, Curry has averaged 22.6 points per game as well as 5.1 assists per game and 5.3 rebounds per game.
He has been extremely effective, drawing double teams and creating open shots for his teammates.
The Warriors are now without the luxury of Curry’s gravity and skill, and will rely on newly acquired Jimmy Butler and the rest of the team to keep their season alive.
They will try to hold off the Timberwolves from advancing to their second straight Western Conference Finals without their franchise player.
