Steph Curry isn’t ready to throw in the towel on the Golden State Warriors season. The veteran superstar’s comments came after his team’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday (March 24). The loss leaves Golden State one game ahead of the Houston Rockets, who are currently surging toward the play-in tournament.
Curry played 29 minutes against Minnesota. He scored 31 points on 9-of-21 shooting. However, his floor spacing and relentless movement weren’t enough to give his team an edge over one of the better teams in the Western Conference. Nevertheless, Curry refused to sound downcast when speaking to the media following the game.
“The situation will define itself pretty clearly,” Curry said. “It is in real time. Every game matters. We’re inching closer to the other end of the standings. Nobody’s gonna wave the white flag. If that means playing more minutes, I’ll be ready to do that.”
Golden State’s season has been littered with inconsistency. They have done a good job in stringing together wins when bouncing back from a losing streak.
Now, with their postseason on the line, the Warriors need to muster some high-level performances on both sides of the floor. The championship core doesn’t have too many seasons together left. They won’t want to see one wasted because they’ve been unable to figure things out and find an identity.
