If the Golden State Warriors can keep their season alive Wednesday, the team could get one of its biggest stars back to close things out. Stephen Curry was cleared for “light on-court workouts” Wednesday after being re-evaluated by the team.
The Warriors announced the news Wednesday. Curry sustained a hamstring injury in Game 1 of the team’s playoff series against the Minnesota Timberwolves and has been sidelined since that game due to the injury.

When Curry originally sustained the injury, the team announced he would be re-evaluated in a week. He was ruled out of Game 2, Game 3 and Game 4, but had an outside shot to play in Wednesday’s Game 5. As Game 5 approached, however, it became clear Curry wasn’t going to be available. He hinted at as much following the Warriors’ 117-110 loss in Game 4 on Monday. On Tuesday, the Warriors officially ruled out Curry for Game 5.
After winning Game 1, the Warriors have dropped three straight games to the Timberwolves. The two teams will square off in Game 5 on Wednesday, with the Warriors’ season on the line.
If Golden State can find a way to pull out a victory Wednesday, it’s possible Curry will be cleared to return for Game 6. The two teams wouldn’t play again until Sunday, giving Curry multiple days to rest before getting back on the court.
While the Warriors would still trail in the series in that scenario, getting Curry back would be a massive boost as the team looks to make yet another deep playoff run.
