NBA: Warriors star Stephen Curry suffers ankle injury

California, December 5: Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry left his team's 125-115 road win against the New Orleans Pelicans late with an ankle injury on Monday (December 4).

Curry scored 31 points with 11 assists and five rebounds, marking his fourth double-double of the season.

But he could be facing a lengthy absence after struggling to limp off the court with just under a minute remaining.

Curry attempted to steal a pass intended for E'Twaun Moore and turned his right ankle.

The Warriors trailed by 20 points at half-time, but for the second time this season, they erased the large deficit to win.

Golden State are now 2-0 when faced with a 20-point half-time deficit this season, when they had previously been 2-150.
