Is Steph Curry playing tonight against the Timberwolves? Latest injury update on Warriors' star ahead of matchup (26th March 2023)
Steph Curry is still one of the best NBA players. He's had numerous fantastic performances in the 2022-23 season, despite the Golden State Warriors struggling to win games.
While Curry's shooting skills make him extremely tough to guard, he hasn't been able to stay healthy this season and contribute to his team every night. However, that is no longer the case as he will be active against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Warriors will host the Timberwolves on Sunday night and this will be one of the most important games of their season. Fortunately for them, Steph Curry is healthy and will be playing tonight.
