Stephen Curry’s Cursed Mouthguard Has Caused All Three Of His Career Ejections

Career ejections for Warriors superstar all have one common element.

Warriors star Stephen Curry usually does a pretty good job at staying on his best behavior on the basketball court. Over 13 seasons in the NBA, Curry has rarely gotten himself involved in scandals or controversies of any kind.

Even on the court, against tough opponents in high-pressure environments, Steph has a special talent for keeping his cool and not losing his composure.

But it seems even Steph has his moments, and the mouthguards he often chews up in his best games have also gotten him into some trouble, including Wednesday night against the Grizzlies.

In his career, which includes almost 900 regular season games, Curry has only been ejected three times — and all three were for the same reason.

Of course, throwing an object toward an official is an automatic ejection, so Curry’s intentions didn’t actually matter in any of the situations shown above. Some have argued that the league should change the rule, but Curry’s really the only one who has this problem, so it’s unlikely to get adjusted.

Nobody knows what it is about the mouthguard that makes the 2x MVP want to chuck it into oblivion, but I can’t blame the guy for letting his anger slip during what has been a highly frustrating season for the Warriors.


Steph Curry Explains Why He Threw Mouthguard

The Warriors were able to come out with a win yesterday, but it didn’t come easy. With a mediocre record for the season, the Dubs came into this game with a heightened level of urgency, and it showed throughout the contest.

By the time the fourth quarter rolled around, it was anyone’s game, and Curry just got lost in the moment.

“Crucial time in the game and the way that our season has gone, there’s questions about the heightened sense of urgency of every detail matters,” Curry said. “When you want something really bad like just getting the win and in the fourth quarter, execution, clutch situation, all that stuff does matter, so I reacted in a way that obviously put myself out of the game and put the team in a tough place.”

If Steph remembers to stop throwing his mouthguards, he should avoid an incident like this for the rest of the season, which is good because the Warriors will need him in as many games as possible.

With so much of the season still left to go, anything can happen, and Curry’s heroics is the only way they can compete in the deep Western Conference.
