Stephen Curry
Stephen Curry of late has looked like he is onto something as far as a good form and rhythm is concerned. He had been having some rough games throughout the month of January. Thursday night game against the Kings was going fine for him performance-wise, but that did not stop the night to get rough for Curry. All ended well for the Warriors as they beat the Sacramento Kings 126-114 at home on Thursday.
During the game, in the 4th Quarter, the Warriors had already sealed the win as they were leading the Kings 120-103 with about four minutes remaining. As Stephen Curry was dribbling, he got imbalanced and tripped. While coming down due to the trip, he fell nose-first on Buddy Hield’s hand, who was defending him then. Curry’s nose started bleeding but he continued to play despite it.

Curry was evidently struggling with the bloodstream flowing down his nose. It was such a hard bump that even brought tears to Curry’s eyes. However, even after the bump, Curry still stole the ball on one of the plays and even laid it in for an open layup. Soon after the bucket, the Warriors called the timeout and Curry did not play after that as he went to the bench. Twitter fans were furious about Curry not getting the foul call whils some had their hilarious takes about this incident:
