NBA MVP STEPH Curry reassured fans that he was ok following the ‘scariest’ fall of his career.

The Golden State Warriors star was left prone on the court on Monday night after he tumbled over Trevor Ariza and crashed down on his back and shoulders.

He needed medical attention as doctors cautiously checked for head and neck injuries before allowing him to move.

Curry was later cleared to return to the game and scored 12 more points, finishing with 23 in total, but couldn’t prevent the Rockets from taking a 128-115 win in Game 4, cutting their series deficit to 3-1.

“It was the scariest one,” Curry told reporters afterwards.

I’ve had worse symptoms and stuff like that from getting hit in the head but that was the worst one because you’re in the air for a long time and not knowing how you’re going to hit the floor, know that it’s going to happen, it’s inevitable, but you’re up there just trying to brace yourself.

“In the seconds afterwards, it’s just a scary feeling, hearing all those voices saying, ‘Take your time’. You just want to gather yourself, regroup and trust the process.”
