Follow usGolden State Warriors star Stephen Curry exited their 112-104 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers early after sustaining an ankle injury at the Chase Center. Curry initially returned to the court after tweaking his ankle twice in the second half, but when he rolled his left ankle hard while setting a screen, he immediately limped off in visible pain and headed to the locker room. Warriors coach Steve Kerr described the injury as “mild or moderate,” and Curry is scheduled for an MRI to assess the extent of the damage.
