NBA: Steph Curry injured as Golden State Warriors lose to LA Clippers
Curry, who has an extensive history of ankle injuries, scored 18 points as the Warriors lost their first game of the NBA season.
Ivica Zubac and James Harden both totalled 23 points for the Clippers.
It was Zubac’s second successive double-double as the Croatian put up 17 rebounds with six assists to go with his 23 points.
“Every time they needed a bucket, they seemed to get one from Zubac,” Kerr said.
Elsewhere, the Boston Celtics beat the Detroit Pistons 124-118 while the Houston Rockets narrowly lost 109-106 against the San Antonio Spurs.
The Miami Heat cruised past the Charlotte Hornets 114-106 after unveiling a statue of franchise legend Dwayne Wade.
Wade, 42, is Miami’s leading all-time scorer and led the Heat to three NBA Championships over two stints in Florida.
