What Kerr blames for Steph's playoffs-altering hamstring injury

What Kerr blames for Steph's playoffs-altering hamstring injury originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

Warriors coach Steve Kerr knows who to blame for Golden State superstar Steph Curry’s series-altering Grade 1 hamstring strain suffered in Game 1 of the NBA’s Western Conference semifinals. 

And as others have noted, Kerr is also of the opinion that the NBA’s congested playoff schedule is at fault for the star’s four-game absence, which severely obstructed the Warriors’ chances of advancing to the Western Conference Finals.

Despite a lack of rest between playoffs jeopardizing Curry’s health, Kerr doesn’t expect the league to give players the priority over profits.

“I think all the complaints of the wear and tear, and the scheduling, are all valid,” Kerr told Yahoo! Sports’ Tom Haberstroh in his latest feature story. “But they all fall on deaf ears because of the dollar sign.

“I don’t think the league’s constituents are willing to give up any money, that’s the problem. But we all know this is not healthy or sustainable if you want guys to survive out there and not have injuries.”

Prior to his injury in the second quarter of Game 1 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Curry played 42 minutes in Game 6 and 46 minutes in Game 7 of their previous series against the Houston Rockets. With travel in between, the 37-year-old played three games in five days.

Haberstroh detailed a conversation between Kerr and the Warriors’ director of sports medicine and performance, Rick Celebrini, on why Curry had suffered his first hamstring strain in his 16-year career.

“Do you think Steph pulling his hamstring has anything to do with playing 48 hours after logging 46 minutes of Game 7 in Houston?” Kerr asked Celebrini.

“One hundred percent,” Celebrini told him. “If he had an extra day or two … we can’t prove this, but I have no doubt based on our understanding of the scientific literature that the hamstring injury was the result of inadequate recovery and fatigue.”

Similar to Kerr, Denver Nuggets star Aaron Gordon recently cited Curry in his plea for the league to offer players more rest in between playoff games. 

Gordon, with a similar congested playoff schedule under his belt, played through a Grade 2 hamstring strain during do-or-die Western Conference semifinals Game 7.

“I think everybody could [benefit],” Gordon told reporters  before mentioning other derailing injuries to Boston Celtics’ Jayson Tatum and the Milwaukee Bucks’ Damian Lillard. “You saw it around the league: Steph with a hamstring, JT, Dame.

“There are guys all around the league suffering fatigue-based injuries because the games are just so closely stacked together. It would just be nice for one or two more rest days throughout the postseason, just so we can come back fresh and compete.” 

In a league known for its increasing parity and physicality, surely a rise in games isn’t the best for player health.

In efforts to protect once-in-a-lifetime stars like Curry, Kerr acknowledges everyone is going to have to work together on a solution.

“We’ve got to try something,” Kerr told Haberstroh. “It’s going to take representatives from the players’ association, the coaches association, the owners, the league and the TV partners to actually acknowledge all of this.”

John Haliburton, Tyrese's father, reportedly cleared to attend Pacers' home games again, starting with Game 4

The last time we saw John Haliburton — father of Pacers' star Tyrese Haliburton — at an NBA game, he was getting in the face of Giannis Antetokounmpo after Indiana had just come from seven points down in the final 40 seconds of overtime to win the game and the series.

Antetokounmpo handled it like a pro, Tyrese said his father was in the wrong, and while John Haliburton apologized, he was banned from attending Pacers home or road games by the team's front office, a ban that carried through the entire second round against Cleveland.

That ban has been lifted, starting with Game 4 against the Knicks on Tuesday night, a story broken by ESPN’s Shams Charania and confirmed by other reports. However, the elder Haliburton will be in a suite, rather than courtside, as he traditionally has been.

John will be in the building for a critical Game 4, where Indiana leads the series 2-1 but dropped Game 3 at home after leading by 20 points in the first half. Karl-Anthony Towns took over late in Game 3 and New York will need another big game from him — and a big one from Jalen Brunson — or the Haliburton family will be celebrating again.

Premier League 2024-25 season review: our predictions versus reality

Two of our 20 predictions were accurate – and we were right about Spurs qualifying for the Champions League

What we predicted: Arne Slot admits he had “big shoes to fill” after Jürgen Klopp’s departure. They may be impossible to fill in terms of rapport with supporters, force of personality and authority. But, in the more important fields of winning and developing this Liverpool team, Slot will back himself to make his mark. There is space for improvement.

NHL Rumor Roundup: The Latest On The Kings, Canadiens And Devils

Rob Blake stepped down as GM of the Los Angeles Kings on May 5. Eleven days later, they hired former Detroit Red Wings and Edmonton Oilers GM Ken Holland as Blake's replacement. 

On May 22, Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic reported Holland intends to be aggressive in this summer's trade and free-agent markets. He believes the new Kings GM could go “big-game hunting” to upgrade their roster following four straight first-round playoff exits to the Oilers. 

The Kings have $21.7 million of projected cap room and 21 active roster players under contract for next season. LeBrun noted they have the cap space to make a big splash in the free-agent pool.  

LeBrun wouldn't be surprised if Holland gets into the bidding for Mitch Marner if the Toronto Maple Leafs right winger tests the UFA market on July 1. He could pursue a more affordable option like Nikolaj Ehlers of the Winnipeg Jets or Brock Boeser of the Vancouver Canucks.

The Hockey News’ Jim Parsons listed Boeser and Marner as targets as well as the Leafs’ John Tavares, Oilers’ Connor Brown and the Florida Panthers’ Brad Marchand and Sam Bennett, but he noted there will be a lot of competition for the high-end free agents.

Brandt Clarke and Joel Armia (Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images)

Turning to the Montreal Canadiens, they're expected to pursue a second-line center via trade or free agency following the Stanley Cup playoffs. 

TVA Sports' Tony Marinaro and Jean-Charles Lajoie recently looked at possible UFA options for the Canadiens. They felt Mikael Granlund of the Dallas Stars might be a good fit.

The 5-foot-10, 185-pound Granlund lacks the size that the Canadiens could seek in a second-line center, However, Marinaro and Lajoie believe he'd be a decent short-term addition. Lajoie recommended signing the 33-year-old Granlund even if the Habs find someone else to center their second line, citing his ability to step up into that role if injuries strike. 

Granlund is completing a four-year contract with an average annual value of $5 million. He's coming off back-to-back seasons of 60-or-more points following a disappointing 2022-23 campaign with the Nashville Predators and Pittsburgh Penguins.

In New Jersey, the Devils could move one or two players this summer to free up salary-cap space to address other roster needs. 

James Nichols of New Jersey Hockey Now indicated the no-trade protection for 34-year-old forwards Ondrej Palat and Erik Haula will change on July 1. Palat's drops from a full no-movement clause to a 10-team no-trade list, while Haula's goes from a full no-trade to a six-team no-trade list. 

Haula might be the easiest to move because he has a year left on his contract with an average annual value of $3.125 million. Palat has two years left at $6 million annually. 

Nichols noted the Devils need more scoring, suggesting Drake Batherson of the Ottawa Senators, Alex Tuch of the Buffalo Sabres and Pavel Dorofeyev of the Vegas Golden Knights as trade targets.

However, the Senators are unlikely to move Batherson and his team-friendly contract, the Sabres are reportedly keen to sign Tuch to an extension, while the Golden Knights probably prefer to retain the 24-year-old Dorofeyev, who tallied 35 goals this season.

Verlander throws bullpen, ‘trending forward' in injury rehab

Verlander throws bullpen, ‘trending forward' in injury rehab originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

Giants starter Justin Verlander appears to be heading in the right direction as he recovers from a pectoral injury.

After hinting that he was limited by some pain during his May 18 start against the Athletics, the 42-year-old was placed on the 15-day IL on May 22, citing nerve irritation in his right pectoral muscle.

On Tuesday, Verlander threw around 40 pitches in a bullpen session as San Francisco’s road trip continues in Detroit.

The three-time Cy Young Award winner shared a positive update after throwing, saying he’s “trending forward,” as shared by the San Francisco Chronicle’s Shayna Rubin on X.

However, Verlander also shared he has some additional hurdles to clear to see if he can return off the IL for his scheduled start on Wednesday, June 4.

Verlander still hasn’t recorded a win in a Giants uniform, though he has rounded into shape after a slow start to the season. The veteran’s ERA through four starts was a startling 6.75, but he has recovered with a 2.97 mark in his last six outings.

San Francisco would welcome the return of Verlander to bolster its already strong pitching staff that has been one of the best in MLB — especially as its offense continues to struggle. Speaking of which, the Giants got some more good news Tuesday on that front as well.

Slugger Jerar Encarnacion, who is yet to make his season debut after sustaining a left hand fracture during spring training, will return to his rehab assignment Tuesday night with the Giants’ Triple-A affiliate Sacramento River Cats.

Encarnacion paused his rehab for a few days earlier this month after dealing with some hand soreness; he was eligible to come off the 60-day IL on Monday.

So, that’s two pieces of good news that potentially could help propel San Francisco amid a nine-game East Coast road trip.
