Son of a Cavs owner was the fan hit by Stephen Curry's mouthguard image

Stephen Curry's mouthpiece — the one that got the Warriors star ejected from Game 6 — nailed the son of a Cavs' minority owner who was sitting courtside.

Andrew Forbes, son of minority owner Nate Forbes, shook hands with a remorseful Curry after trying to dodge the high-velocity heave.

"It's all good," Andrew Forbes told ESPN. "It just hit me, and I was like, 'Who? What?' I was just cheering, being a fan. I don't even know where he was throwing it. ... He was good about it."

In addition to the ejection, Curry also could be fined for losing his cool late in Golden State's 115-101 loss in Cleveland.

"I've thrown my mouthpiece before. I usually aim at the scorer's table. I was off aim. Definitely didn't mean to throw it at a fan," Curry said via ESPN. "That was obviously not where I was trying to take my frustration out."
