Golden State Warriors' Stephen Curry comments on elbow injury

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry isn't having any lingering problems with his right elbow after falling on it Wednesday night during Game 2 of the Western Conference finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Curry developed a tennis ball-sized bump after diving into the stands going after a loose ball during the Warriors' 118-91 win that tied the series at one victory each.

"Oh, it's fine. Swelling went down, so no worries," Curry said Friday at the Warriors' practice facility.

But he was wearing a shooting sleeve over the elbow for protection.

"Just compression to make sure I can get shots up and not have any swelling,"

Curry said. "It's sore, just because of the impact, but the spot it's at doesn't affect the range of motion, so I can shoot and dribble and do all I need to do. It's uncomfortable, but it's not necessarily painful."

Curry said the swelling made the injury look more severe than it is.

"These are, from what I hear, very common injuries. You land on something, hard surface, or get bumped -- elbow, hip, knee -- they tend to kind of swell up," he said. "They don't cause any problems mechanically or what not. I can still use my arm, do what I need to do. It just looks ugly and is a little uncomfortable. That's it."

The series resumes in Oklahoma City on Sunday, giving Curry more time to heal. He has also dealt with a sprained ankle and a sprained knee earlier in the playoffs.

"I'm doing all right, nothing to really worry about," Curry said. "It's nice to have three days in between to get your body right."
