Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry was just like the rest of us, avidly watched Sunday's All-Star Game from the comfort of his living room. His wife, Ayesha Curry, shared a brief clip of herself and her husband enjoying the game, and as it seems, Steph was pretty invested in the thrilling contest:

We're willing to bet that this was Curry's reaction following that controversial block by Giannis Antetokounmpo on LeBron James deep in the fourth period. The game had already shifted moods at that point, with the players all of a sudden taking the contest much more seriously.
Obviously, Curry thought that Giannis should not have been called for the goaltend, and the Warriors guard was not shy about making his feelings known via social media. Here's a look at the contentious play:

While the call was overturned, Team LeBron still eventually edged out Team Giannis in a tightly contested battle, 157-155.
As for Curry, his early-season hand injury forced him out of what would have been his seventh All-Star appearance. The good news, however, is that recent reports state that the 31-year-old Warriors star will be returning to action in early March. His recovery seems to be going as well as expected, and barring any setbacks, Curry should still have time left in the season to play in.
The big question, though, is how much he's going play. The Warriors are in full tank mode right now and have zero motivation to rush Curry back into action. Even if he gets to a hundred percent at some point, it would not be surprising if he takes some nights off the rest of the season.
