The Golden State Warriors have been dealt a setback ahead of the Play-In Tournament, with Stephen Curry set to operate under restrictions at the worst possible time.
The timing could hardly be more difficult, with the postseason now reduced to single-elimination pressure.
And with a crucial clash against the LA Clippers looming, any limitation on Curry immediately shifts the balance of the matchup.

In an update shared via Yahoo Sports, head coach Steve Kerr confirmed a key limitation on his star guard ahead of the tournament.
âSteph Curry will be on a minutes restriction during the Play-In Tournament, head coach Steve Kerr announced Sunday.
âCurry has logged no more than 29 minutes in his four games since returning from a two-month absence with a knee injury,â Yahoo Sports reported.
The restriction reflects a cautious approach following Curryâs recent return, but it comes at a critical moment in the Warriorsâ season.
Golden Stateâs offense remains heavily dependent on his presence, particularly in high-stakes games where shot creation becomes limited.
The Warriors are set to face the LA Clippers in the Western Conference 9 versus 10 Play-In game, a win-or-go-home matchup that will decide their immediate future.
Golden State enters as the lower seed, meaning there is no margin for error in this single-elimination contest.
If the Warriors lose, their season ends immediately. A win would extend their campaign, but still require another victory to secure a playoff spot.
With Curry unlikely to play full minutes, Golden State faces a clear challenge. Their postseason hopes now depend on managing his workload while still generating enough offense to survive.
