Stephen Curry and his mouthpiece are usually inseparable. But three times in his career, including last night, he used his treasured mouthpiece as a projectile, and it cost him. Here are those moments.
Stephen Curry’s mouthpiece has become a staple of the superstar’s motif, recurrently seen hanging halfway outside the corner of his mouth amid his dazzling basketball brilliance.
"I reacted in a way that put myself out of the game and put the team in a tough place," Curry said postgame."But the intentions and the energy around what matters, and the sense winning, that's what it's about. Thankfully my teammates responded really well." With 4:22 to go in the 4th quarter and team down 12, Curry, trying to tip the ball out of the hands of James, picked up his sixth foul of the game, disqualifying him for the remainder of the contest. An irate Curry looked back at referee Jason Phillips and fired his mouth piece to the sideline, which hit the son of one of the Cavaliers’ minority owners. Phillips without hesitation sent Curry to the showers.
“If I tried to throw it at him and hit him, I’ve got a pretty good aim,” Curry said, adding he “would have been able to execute that.”
