Jimmy Butler—who posted 33 points, seven rebounds and seven assists on Saturday—had a blunt response when asked about playing without Curry. To him, the team needs to focus on winning right now or it won't matter if Curry returns if the Warriors get eliminated before he can.

Jimmy Butler had high praise for Golden State Warriors' youngster Jonathan Kuminga, explaining that he thinks they can thrive together.

Ahead of Game 4 on Monday night, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr spoke to the media and said he doesn’t expect Butler and Kuminga to have a repeat performance. According to ESPN’s Ohm Youngmisuk, Kerr pointed to the likelihood of Minnesota making defensive adjustments and said he expects other players to step up in response.
