Curry curt when describing injury: 'I slipped, I fell, I hurt'
Golden State Warriors guard and reigning MVP Stephen Curry injured himself Sunday in Game 4 against the Houston Rockets in a manner that wasn't overly complicated.

So, when asked after his team's 121-94 victory about what transpired, "The Chef" kept his response brief.
"I slipped, I fell, I hurt. My team is awesome. The end," Curry said, according to the San Francisco Chronicle's Rob Kroichick.
There's clearly a part of him that's thrilled about how dominant his team was during the second half. The competitor in him very much wanted to contribute to the accomplishment, though, and teammate Draymond Green noted Curry was emotional when he learned he couldn't return for the final 24 minutes of play.
In the 18 minutes in which he did see the floor prior to going down, Curry scored six points on 2-of-9 shooting while dishing out five assists, which were offset by his five turnovers.
