Steph Curry's injury history: Warriors star has dealt with many ailments, but never before a hamstring image

Stephen Curry's NBA career was nearly derailed by ankle injuries before it ever really got going.

Before he was a champion or an MVP, Curry was a young player with rickety ankles.

Clearly, he overcame those woes.

But now, more than a decade later, he's facing an injury he's never had before.

Curry left Game 1 of the Western Conference semis against the Timberwolves with a left hamstring injury.

Steph Curry injury history

Curry has more than 50 injuries documented by Fox Sports from the span of his career, from little ailments to bigger issues, anything that ever showed up on an injury report.

There are zero mentions of hamstring on the list.

When you think about Curry's non-stop running style of play, it's amazing that he's never pulled a hammy.

This one came as he landed awkwardly after shooting a floater. Curry limped and called for a sub immediately, then went to the locker room before being ruled out.

There's no telling how long Curry will be out. Hamstrings are notoriously tricky.

The Warriors hope that Curry's up-to-this-point sturdy hamstrings come through in the end here.
