Stephen Curry Fined $5K for Game 1 Flop vs Rockets (VIDEO)

Storylines from Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals were dominated by Stephen Curry’s 34-point performance and his adorable 2-year old daughter.

The NBA found nothing particularly cute in Curry’s flop late in the fourth quarter, however, as he unsuccessfully tried to draw a foul on Houston Rockets forward Terrence Jones while splashing home yet another three-pointer.

Steph is now $5,000 poorer.

From the press release:

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry has been fined $5,000 by the NBA for violating the league’s anti-flopping rules during Game 1 of the Warriors’ Western Conference Finals series against the Houston Rockets.

 

The incident occurred with 3:07 remaining in the fourth quarter of the Warriors’ 110-106 victory over the Rockets on Tuesday night at Oracle Arena.
