08:10 AM ET 02.23 | The Warriors held on for a gratifying win Wednesday without point guard Stephen Curry, who exited after playing just 10 minutes. He said he felt sharp pain on the inside-bottom of his foot. X-rays were negative, but tests showed Curry sprained the posterior tibialis tendon in his foot. It is the tendon that attaches the calf muscle to a bone inside the foot. Curry tried to come back in for the final 18 seconds of the first half but could barely move and told [Mark Jackson] he couldn't go. Curry said he's going to rest and get treatment. He said he hasn't made a decision yet on whether he will participate in the Skills Challenge on Saturday as part of All-Star weekend.
