Stephen Curry is currently amongst the best NBA players of the season, he has been nothing short of spectacular as the leader of the Golden State Warriors. Currently, they have been struggling lately and gone up to five defeats. Last Sunday, Stephen Curry's 38 points as the highest scorer of the game weren't enough to give Golden State the victory. A locked-in Anthony Edwards has suddenly become a problem for the last six games the Wolves have played. On Tuesday, the Golden State Warriors just got the news they are facing that same Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves without Stephen Curry. As the Warriors just announced the pointguard is missing the game that has high stakes in the In-Season Tournament.
Warriors' Stephen Curry pulls off "inhuman" shot, silencing practice session
Why isn't Stephen Curry playing against the Timberwolves?
We just heard Stephen Curry himself talking about the importance of the In-Season Tournament and how he loves that sense of urgency. In the Warriors' most recent injury report leading up to the game at Chase Center, Stephen Curry appears as out of the game with a reported knee soreness. As a matter of precaution, coach Steve Kerr advised against his best player getting minutes against the Timberwolves. This leaves a free lane for Anthony Edwards and the rest of his teammates to take advantage of the situation. Without Curry, it should be interesting to see if other players like Klay Thompson or Chris Paul can step up their game in order to defend their territory tonight.
This is also the perfect chance for Anthony Edwards to take on Draymond Green without Stephen Curry right there to back up his provocations. Every single time Draymond Green gets into an altercation, he usually is saved by the brilliance of Stephen Curry. This time, he won't be able to get that cushion of 30+ points Stephen Curry provides every night. Edwards already has an idea of how to get past Green when they face each other, which leaves the door open tonight for an interesting game.
