The Golden State Warriors lost Game 3 of the NBA Finals, 116-110, on Wednesday night, and Golden State will hope that's all they lost.

Perhaps if the injury occurred during the regular season, Curry would miss some games, but this is the NBA Finals, and he's well aware of what's at stake. Late in the fourth quarter of the contest, Warriors star guard Steph Curry was in some serious pain after Boston Celtics big man Al Horford appeared to land on top of Curry's lower leg during a scrum for a loose ball. When asked about Curry's injury after the game, Kerr said that the team would know more on Thursday. Curry, meanwhile, said that he thought it felt like a mild foot sprain.
