Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry has been ruled out indefinitely with a knee injury.
Curry limped off court during the third quarter of the Warriors’ 119-113 win over the Dallas Mavericks after clashing knees with an opponent.
He had an MRI on Sunday which confirmed he had suffered “partial tears” to ligaments in his left knee, as well as bruising to his lower leg.

He could also miss out on a ninth appearance in the NBA All-Star Game on 19 February, for which he had been voted in as a starter.
