Steph Curry had no other choice but to watch from the bench on Wednesday night as the 11-time All-Star sat out his third straight game due to a lingering hamstring injury.

Curry, however, clearly was not enjoying what he was seeing as the Minnesota Timberwolves opened up a big lead in the first half of their Game 5 matchup.

With a minute and a half remaining in the second quarter, Wolves star Julius Randle hit a long-range bomb to put Minnesota up by 11 points in what could very well be the final game of Golden State’s season.

The cameras caught Curry’s reaction on the bench as the former back-to-back MVP was seen shaking his head in disbelief.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said on Wednesday that there is a possibility Curry is able to suit up for Game 6. He won’t have a chance to do so, though, if the Warriors, who entered Game 5 down 3-1 in the series, lose on Wednesday night.

Golden State has lost three straight games since Curry went down with the hamstring injury, and it’s looking like they’re headed to a fourth one in Game 5.

As of writing, the Wolves are up 97-85 in the early minutes of the fourth quarter. The Warriors must dig deep if they want to pull off a comeback in this game. Failing to do so will mean that this will be the last time they take the court this season as they suffer another second-round exit in the NBA playoffs.
