Golden State Warriors star guard Stephen Curry will undergo an MRI to determine the extent of the injury to his right quad.

Curry sustained the injury in a pair of collisions during the fourth quarter of Golden State's 104-100 loss to the Houston Rockets on Wednesday in San Francisco.

The two-time NBA MVP was whistled for a blocking foul on Houston's Amen Thompson and later was called for a charge on his attempt for a driving layup.

'When I heard it was a quad, I was actually relieved,' Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. 'Better than an ankle or a knee.'

Curry exited the contest with 35.2 seconds remaining and retreated to the locker room.

'If Steph has to miss (time)?' Kerr said. 'It obviously changes everything -- our rotations, how we're playing, who we are playing through. We'll see.'

Curry, 37, is averaging 27.9 points, 4.0 assists and 3.7 rebounds in 16 games (all starts) this season.

The 11-time All-Star and four-time NBA champion is the league's all-time leader in 3-pointers (4,133) in the regular season and in the playoffs (650).
