SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — In a tightly contested match, Stephen Curry led the Golden State Warriors with 26 points before suffering a left ankle injury in the final moments, ultimately aiding his team's victory over the Washington Wizards by a score of 122-114 on Saturday night. Curry was tangled up with the Wizards’ Jordan Poole as both contested for a rebound. Following the incident, he attempted to walk it off but sought the locker room early, leaving with under two minutes remaining in the game.

Despite the injury, Warriors coach Steve Kerr reported that Curry was optimistic, suggesting that he did not believe the ankle injury to be serious. "Feels great," Curry said after the game, indicating his hope to return soon, as discussed in reports by AP News.

Adding to the Warriors' woes, Draymond Green exited the game in the first quarter due to left calf tightness and is expected to undergo an MRI. The Warriors needed a solid performance in the fourth quarter, highlighted by an 11-2 run, to secure the win, assisted by Andrew Wiggins, who added 31 points and 11 rebounds.

The Warriors now prepare to host the defending champion Boston Celtics on Monday, amid concerns regarding their star player's availability. Meanwhile, this game marks a lost opportunity for Poole, who scored 38 points against his former team.
