Warriors' Stephen Curry lands $50,000 NBA fine for throwing mouthguard

• Golden State star was ejected during loss to Memphis Grizzlies
• League elects not to suspend former MVP or team-mate Kevin Durrant

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry has escaped serious punishment after his ejection from Saturday’s defeat to the Memphis Grizzlies.

The two-time NBA MVP threw his mouthguard in the direction of an official towards the end of the game and he was joined in the tunnel soon afterwards by his team-mate Kevin Durant. Curry was also ejected after hitting a fan with his mouthguard during the 2016 NBA Finals but escaped this time with a $50,000 fine rather than a suspension. Curry is due to make $34m in salary this season.
