Curry rolled the ankle when, during a drive to the basket in the second half of Saturday's victory at Furman, he stepped on the foot of Paladins forward Noah States. The injury initially looked more serious, as Curry lay just off the end of the court for about 5 minutes while the ankle was wrapped in ice.
