Without Steph Curry, the Golden State Warriors fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves 117-93 on Thursday night as their Western Conference semifinals series is now tied up at one game apiece heading to the Bay.
Warriors co-star Jimmy Butler is tasked with taking on more of the offensive load with Curry out of the lineup for the foreseeable future. Curry exited Golden State's Game 1 victory with a pulled hamstring—the first of his 16-year career. The issue for Butler? He's still dealing with the nagging effects of the pelvic contusion that he suffered in Golden State's first-round series against the Houston Rockets.
