Fans quickly became worried with the two-time MVP's status after exiting the contest.
"Curry could be hurt. Worth monitoring," said @mariano_rudolph.
"Oh no, Curry is hurt," added @imevrygirlzdrug.
"Oof, I dislike the guy, but I hope Curry's not too hurt, man," wrote @shhhaef.
"Curry wears a Niners jersey before the game. Proceeds to get hurt. Jesus," posted @ChristjanW.
"Curry is hurt. Never want to see that," commented @young_eddo.
"We got real problems now. Curry is hurt," echoed @sirslam24.
It's not a secret that Curry has been bothered by injuries throughout his career. He strained his hamstring in the first round of last season's playoffs against the Minnesota Timberwolves , which practically ended their campaign.
