SAN FRANCISCO — Stephen Curry scored 26 points before leaving the game with a left ankle injury in the final minutes as the Golden State Warriors beat the Washington Wizards 122-114 Saturday night.
Curry got tangled with Washington's Jordan Poole under the basket and was down on the court for a few seconds before heading to the bench.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said that Curry, who had tape on his ankle while at his locker, didn't think that the injury was serious.
Andrew Wiggins had 31 points and 11 rebounds for Golden State.
Poole, playing in his second game at Chase Center since the Warriors traded him to the Wizards, had 38 points for Washington.
Up by one midway through the fourth, the Warriors went on an 11-2 run, capped by two 3s by Curry, to take a double-digit lead with two and a half minutes left.
Draymond Green, who had just returned to the lineup after missing three games with an illness, left the game with left calf tightness in the first quarter. He is scheduled to have an MRI on Sunday.
Poole had 23 points at halftime as the Wizards led 60-53 at the break.
