Hurts ankle in buzzer-beating loss Curry was spotted with a walking boot in the locker room after tweaking his ankle late in Wednesday's 71-69 loss to Michigan State, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune re...

Impact Though Joey Hauser came through with a buzzer-beating bucket to send Michigan State to victory, Curry nearly carried the Golden Gophers to an upset win on the road. The sixth-year senior established a new career high with 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 FT) and added seven rebounds, one assist and one block in 30 minutes, but the performance was tainted by the ankle injury. The 6-foot-9, 240-pound center has a long history of health issues, but he had been highly durable leading up to Wednesday, appearing in each of the Golden Gophers' first 14 games. He now looks at risk of missing his first game of the season Sunday versus Iowa.
