Curry scored 31 points with 11 assists and five rebounds, marking his fourth double-double of the season. But he could be facing a lengthy absence after struggling to limp off the court with just under a minute remaining. Curry attempted to steal a pass intended for E'Twaun Moore and turned his right ankle.
X-rays on Curry's ankle were negative but his ankle was "pretty swollen," according to The Athletic .
