Curry confident of fitness ahead of Oklahoma City clash despite 'tennis ball' bump

Oakland (United States) (AFP) - Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry is confident of being fit to face the Oklahoma City Thunder this weekend despite suffering a badly swollen elbow in Game Two.

Curry produced a virtuoso third quarter performance to inspire the Warriors to a 118-91 victory over the Thunder on Wednesday as Golden State leveled the best-of-seven series at 1-1.

However Curry finished the game with a question mark over his fitness after an incident in the first quarter where he dove headfirst into the crowd as he chased a loose ball.

The fall left Curry with visible swelling on his elbow -- but the Warriors star is adamant he will be fit to face the Thunder in Oklahoma City on Sunday.
