Curry says right elbow is fine after Game 2 swelling

Stephen Curry arrived for his postgame media conference with his right elbow wrapped after the Golden State Warriors' 118-91 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder, but he wasn't sweating it.

"Elbow's fine," Curry told reporters. "It looks like it has a tennis ball on top of it, but it doesn't affect range of motion. There's just some pain, so I'll be all right."

Curry banged the elbow when crashing into the first three rows of stands in the first half while chasing a loose ball. Between the incident and a swollen ball visibly forming on the elbow, the NBA MVP went on a third-quarter tear in which he scored 15 points in under two minutes.

"Something we'll pay attention to over the next 48 hours," Curry said of the elbow. "I should be all right. I think that's kind of not as invasive a procedure, if necessary. Either way, I'll be fine."

Game 3 goes Sunday in Oklahoma City.
