After eventually finding a way to get the better of the Houston Rockets, the Golden State Warriors will be up against the Minnesota Timberwolves in round 2 of the playoffs. Game 1 of the 7-match series will take place tonight at the Target Center. Considering they are coming after convincingly beating the LA Lakers, knocking them out in 5 games, the momentum will be in favour of the Timberwolves. However, the Warriors have the firepower to outscore T-Wolves. Stephen Curry needs to come out as the leader, and he will have an impact on the game, should he play. So, to know whether he will play tonight or not, let's take a look at the Golden State Warriors injury report.
