Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green made an apology after Game 4's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Warriors didn’t receive the surprise they needed to win Game 4 of their Western Conference semifinal series with the Timberwolves on Monday. So now they’re going to need something much, much stronger. Down 3-1 and heading to Minnesota for a close-out Game 5, the Dubs will need a miracle. Specifically, one of the medical variety.

The Golden State Warriors lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves 117-110 in Game 4 of their 2025 NBA Playoff Western Conference semifinals, leaving them in a 3-1 deficit as the series moves back to Minneapolis for a potential closeout Game 5.

The Golden State Warriors will officially be looking to stave off elimination without Steph Curry in the lineup.

Coach Steve Kerr, Warriors will try to find space and pace if injured Curry can’t play against Minnesota in Game 5.

Curry's hamstring will prevent him from playing in Game 5 on Wednesday with the Warriors on the brink of elimination.

After a tight first half, the Timberwolves blew the game open in the third quarter, with Anthony Edwards leading a decisive 17-0 blast. They had a 20-point lead, 97-77, entering the final period and never looked back for a third consecutive win.
