The NBA made the announcement Wednesday. The league says the flop occurred after Curry’s 3-pointer with 3:07 remaining in the fourth quarter of the Warriors’ 110-106 victory Tuesday night.
Curry made the shot and fell to the court after getting bumped by defender Terrence Jones. The 3-pointer gave the Warriors a 106-97 lead.
