Game 3 of the 2022 NBA Finals was horrific for the Golden State Warriors. The Boston Celtics sat in the driving seat of the game and lead for a majority of the contest. Finally defeating Stephen Curry and co. 116-100, Ime Udoka’s boys managed to cap off the game with a solid 23-11 4th quarter.
Things became from bad to horrible for the Warriors when Steph held his foot in pain during the dying minutes of the bout.
With 4:12 minutes left in the clash, Chef Curry dove in for a loose ball battle. Not only did the Cs get possession of the ball, but the GSW’s 2-time MVP also injured his left foot during the tussle.

Talking about his injury in the postgame presser, The Baby-Faced Assassin said:
“I’ll be all right. I got caught — obviously in some pain, but I’ll be all right. See how it feels tomorrow and get ready for Friday… I don’t feel like I’ll miss a game. Take advantage of these next 48 hours to get ready.”
