No. 3 in the 30-second version

Stephen Curry left the Warriors' loss to Houston early with abdominal soreness and will undergo an MRI.

The team ruled Curry out at the start of the second quarter, and coach Steve Kerr said the concern is high though further specifics were not yet known. Curry had been on the floor for only a few minutes when he exited. Rookie Yaxel Lendeborg led Golden State with 25 points and 10 rebounds, and the Warriors' eight-game winning streak ended.

Rockets guard Marcus Smart was ejected after throwing a punch at Warriors center Charles Bassey.

Smart was assessed a Flagrant 2 foul after the punch, which officials said made contact with Bassey's nose. Rockets coach Ime Udoka said Smart reacted after Bassey replied to a complaint about a rebound entanglement, and Bassey called the punch fake toughness. Under the NBA rulebook, a punch brings a suspension of at least one game, and a mandatory fine is also expected.
