Many critics had written off the Warriors at the start of the series, but Steph Curry and his team would not be denied. The Warriors bested the Rockets in seven games and are now facing the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry will be sidelined for at least the next three games of the Western Conference semifinals thanks to his hamstring strain, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Charania reported Friday on The Pat McAfee Show that Curry "could be back for Game 6 at the earliest."

A longtime reporter covering the Golden State Warriors said injured star Steph Curry "wasn't moving great as he walked out" of the shootaround before Game 4.
