Stephen Curry and Draymond Green Out for Warriors’ Clash with Minnesota
The Golden State Warriors face significant challenges as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Star players Stephen Curry and Draymond Green will not participate in this crucial clash.
Injury Updates: Curry and Green
On Monday, head coach Steve Kerr confirmed that Stephen Curry’s ongoing knee issues have prevented him from playing. Additionally, Draymond Green is dealing with a back injury. Both players are essential to the team’s success.
Upcoming Game Plans
The Warriors will compete against the Timberwolves, coming off a previous victory on Sunday where they triumphed 111-85 in Minneapolis. Despite this win, the absence of key players will challenge the team’s depth and strategy.

Looking Ahead
Despite the setbacks, Coach Kerr remains optimistic. He hopes to have both Curry and Green back for the next game against Utah scheduled for Wednesday.
