TNT’s Lauren Jbara Has New Intel On Stephen Curry’s Injury After Steve Kerr Updates Status In Minnesota

Warriors fans, holding their breath in Minneapolis with the team down 3-1, got a tiny lifeline from TNT’s Lauren Jbara. She dropped some new details on Steph Curry’s insane rehab from that Game 1 hamstring strain, showing he’s fighting to get back with that classic Curry fire. This was right when Warriors coach Steve Kerr gave his usual careful update, dangling that Game 6 carrot – if the Dubs can even make it there without him.

Jbara laid it out on TNT: Steph’s been grinding through “eight hours of rehab a day.” Eight hours! For a 37-year-old. That’s pure dedication. She talked to Rick Celebrini, the Warriors’ health guru, who said Steph’s rehab is “comprehensive and detailed,” and that, no surprise, “Steph attacks rehab like he does everything else.” This isn’t just waiting around; he’s pushing hard to get back on that floor.

And Kerr? His pre-Game 5 talk in Minnesota matched that hopeful vibe, even while saying Steph was a no-go for this elimination game. If they can somehow force a Game 6, Kerr admitted, “It’s a possibility he could play (Game 6),” (thanks to Anthony Slater of The Athletic for that). It’s not much, but for a team that’s looked completely adrift without their main man, it’s something to hang onto.
