VIDEO: Curry gets away with pushing Stephenson on final shot

The Golden State Warriors avoided a stunning upset at the hands of the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday, and may have received a little help in the process.
Trailing 100-99 and with possession, Grizzlies guard Lance Stephenson had a pair of chances to net a possible game-winner. After his first attempt was blocked, Stephenson corralled the loose ball and tossed up a desperation shot in triple coverage.
Stephen Curry's two-hand shove of Stephenson went undetected as he shot the ball, but no foul was called and the Warriors held on for the one-point win.
With the victory, Golden State matched the NBA record with its 33rd road win on the year, and sit one win shy of tying the 1995-96 Bulls single-season wins record.
