When Steph Curry takes the court for the Warriors tonight during Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals, he's going to look a little bit different than he normally does. It seems that, in addition to hurting his head on a scary fall during Game 4 of the series, he also tweaked his right arm. So Curry is going to be wearing a shooting sleeve for the first time ever. And before you say, "But won't that mess up his shot?!" Curry has already revealed that he'll be just fine.
"Shot pretty well with it just now," he told reporters after a shootaround this morning. "I don't wear them ever, so it takes a little time to get used to."
There's a chance that Curry could struggle a bit at the beginning of the game because of the sleeve. But as this Twitter user pointed out, his struggles shouldn't last long:
Ha. OK, so the sleeve might not be that helpful. But we wouldn't expect it to hinder Curry too much.
