It took 1,193 career games in the NBA, but Stephen Curry was finally called for a flagrant foul.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Warriors\u2019 superstar was called for his first-ever flagrant late in the first quarter of Tuesday\u2019s 126-102 loss to the Thunder.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Curry got called for stepping into the landing zone as Isaiah Joe attempted a 3-pointer, which led to him falling to the ground.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The call was reviewed and the refs ultimately upgraded the foul to a flagrant 1.<\/p>\n

\u201cCurry closes out from a distance with an extended leg. Joe lands on Curry\u2019s foot, creating a potential for injury as a result of the contact,\u201d referee John Goble announced after the review.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to the NBA rulebook, <\/a>\u201cDefenders must give airborne shooters the opportunity to land safely,\u201d and a \u201cFlagrant Foul, Penalty 1 is defined as contact that is unnecessary.\u201d<\/p>\n

The foul occurred with 01.3 seconds left in the first quarter and Curry looked in disbelief on the bench as Goble made the announcement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The fact that Curry had gone 17 years in the NBA without a flagrant foul up until Tuesday is a rather remarkable feat.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Curry finished the game with 11 points on 4-of-13 shooting, and he went just 1-for-5 from 3-point range.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Warriors have dropped five of their last seven games and are just 6-6 this season. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It took 1,193 career games in the NBA, but Stephen Curry was finally called for a flagrant foul.\u00a0…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":36844,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[9140,21,9,11,10,9132,319,21557],"class_list":{"0":"post-36843","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-golden-state-warriors","9":"tag-nba","10":"tag-new-york","11":"tag-new-york-headlines","12":"tag-new-york-news","13":"tag-oklahoma-city-thunder","14":"tag-sports","15":"tag-stephen-curry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36843","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36843"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36843\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36844"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36843"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36843"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36843"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
