Steph Curry 's forgetfulness almost proved costly in the closing stages of the Golden State Warriors' NBA Playoff match with the Sacramento Kings.
In what proved to be a thrilling game at the Chase Center, the reigning NBA champions clung on to defeat a resolute Kings side 126-125. But Curry, who scored 32 points in the vital victory, put it in jeopardy after making a crucial error in judgement in the fourth quarter.
With 40 seconds remaining in the game, the star point guard had the ball but was left trapped with no space to escape or pass to a team-mate. Therefore he opted to call a timeout rather than commit a turnover, but the issue was Warriors did not have any remaining.
