The Golden State Warriors lost Stephen Curry but won Game 1 of their second-round NBA playoff series against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night. Curry exited early in the second quarter, did not return and is expected to miss a week after an MRI revealed a Grade 1 hamstring strain. Curry will definitely miss Thursday's Game 2 in Minnesota.

Fatigued Golden State players took Wednesday off after a physical 99-88 Game 1 victory over the Timberwolves, but coach Steve Kerr and his staff went to work determining how the Warriors will play on without superstar Stephen Curry for the next three games and possibly the rest of the best-of-seven series.
