Golden State remained gracious in defeat, though. Shortly after the final buzzer, the Warriors sent a two-word message to Minnesota via social media. The Warriors shared a video of the post-game interaction between the players, which included Curry embracing Anthony Edwards and giving the young Wolves superstar a brief message.

And with that, the Warriors' season has ended. Simply put, Golden State could not recover after losing superstar Stephen Curry to a left hamstring strain in Game 1 of this series. Golden State finished Game 1 without Curry with a 99-88 win but proceeded to lose four straight by a combined 47 points.

Draymond Green referenced the betting spread in Game 3 of the Warriors’ series with the Timberwolves after he fouled out, questioning the integrity of the officials.

The Minnesota Timberwolves are legitimate contenders in the 2025 NBA playoffs. After eliminating the Golden State Warriors in five games on Wednesday night, the Timberwolves find themselves in back-to-back Western Conference finals for the first time in franchise history.

Stephen Curry missed his third game with a strained hamstring. He is not expected to play in Game 5 on Wednesday.
