Ankle sprain sidelines Steph

-

Stephen Curry will miss a minimum of two weeks after a Tuesday MRI exam on his injured right ankle revealed a sprain.

The Golden State Warriors said their leading scorer and two-time league MVP will be re-evaluated in two weeks.

Curry stepped on E’Twaun Moore’s foot and landed awkwardly on the ankle while going for a late steal in a 125-115 comeback win on Monday night at New Orleans and left the arena using crutches and wearing a walking boot.

The defending NBA champions said the MRI indicated Curry’s ankle “is stable and structural­ly intact”.

Curry is averaging 26.3 points, 6.6 assists and 5.1 rebounds this season.
