Stephen Curry sustained a Grade 1 left hamstring strain during Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Minnesota Timberwolves in May 2025. As of the latest updates, he does not have a specific target date to return because hamstring injuries require a healing process that cannot be rushed. The earliest possible return Curry might make is Game 6 of the series, which was scheduled for May 18, 2025, pending his recovery progress and reevaluation. However, his participation in Game 5 was considered unlikely. Curry emphasized that he will not return until fully healed to avoid re- injury, acknowledging how tricky hamstring injuries can be. He has been progressing with treatment and on-court workouts, and will be reassessed continuously to determine when he can safely return. Beyond the immediate playoffs, Curry indicated he intends to stick around for the 2025-2026 NBA season and continue aiming for more NBA titles with the Golden State Warriors.
