Steph Curry throws mouthpiece, receives first career ejection (Video)
This is not at all how Stephen Curry envisioned Game 6 going.
Curry picked up two fouls in the first six minutes of the game on Thursday night and had to spend more time on the bench than usual. He picked up his fifth in the fourth quarter, and then he was call for his sixth foul going for a steal with around four minutes left in the game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
After being called for his sixth foul, Curry was so enraged his threw his mouthpiece, which inadvertently hit a fan. Steph was given a technical foul for his outburst, leading to his first career ejection.

Curry went over to apologize to the fan and make up with him. He later walked off the court into the locker room, his night complete after a 30-point effort on 8-for-20 shooting.
Game 7 will be on Sunday night, and no doubt Curry will be ready for it.
