The Golden State Warriors need all the Stephen Curry they can get to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference semifinals.

Instead, they hadn't even made it a half into the series before Curry was injured.

Early in the second quarter, Curry curled for a handoff, flipped in a floater and appeared to be injured on either his plant or landing.

Running back down the floor, he waved to the bench to send someone in for him. At the next stoppage, the Warriors substituted Curry out of the game. He went to the locker room.
