Golden State Warriors guard Seth Curry has suffered another injury setback, this time a mild left adductor strain that will sideline him for at least one week. Curry had just recently returned to the lineup after missing significant time earlier this season due to persistent back issues and sciatic nerve irritation. The 35-year-old veteran was injured during Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves when he collided with Donte DiVincenzo while chasing a loose ball.

Why it matters

Curry's latest injury is a frustrating setback for the Warriors, who have been managing multiple injury concerns across their roster in recent weeks. As a veteran sharpshooter, Curry has historically provided valuable scoring and spacing off the bench, and his absence could impact Golden State's rotation and lineup flexibility as the team approaches the final stretch of the regular season.

The details

Curry suffered the left adductor strain in the second quarter of Friday's game against the Timberwolves. He immediately went to the locker room and did not return, finishing with 0 points on 0-for-2 shooting in 7 minutes of action. Further testing revealed the mild strain, and the Warriors announced Curry will be re-evaluated in one week.
