He headed straight to the locker room, walking under his own power.&quot;I thought it was a dangerous play,&quot; Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. &quot;I thought Marcus dove into Steph, and that&#x27;s what I was upset about. A lot of respect for Marcus. He&#x27;s a hell of a player, a gamer, a competitor. I coached him in the World Cup a few summers ago. We talked after the game and we&#x27;re good. But I thought it was a dangerous play.&quot;Curry, 34, holds team-leading averages in points (25.5) and assists (6.3) to go along with 5.2 rebounds in 64 games this season.
