Steph Curry’s return to the Warriors for their first game against the Timberwolves this season is marked by irony, as he missed their playoff matchup last year due to a hamstring injury. After a four-game losing streak without him, the Warriors are now over .500 and looking to establish their identity with Curry back on the court. However, Draymond Green and Al Horford will miss the game, while new additions and emerging players have helped during Curry’s absence. Coach Steve Kerr remains optimistic about the team’s potential despite prior struggles.
