San Francisco, California - Steph Curry was ejected for throwing his mouthpiece before Jordan Poole scored a last-second layup as the Golden State Warriors narrowly beat the Memphis Grizzlies 122-120 in the NBA on Wednesday.

Curry was thrown out with 1:14 remaining in the fourth quarter with the Warriors up by two for unsportsmanlike conduct, having thrown his mouthpiece in frustration after Poole opted not to pass to him, before missing a three-point attempt.

But Golden State kept their composure without their NBA Finals MVP, as Klay Thompson drained a clutch three-pointer with 14.1 seconds left before Ja Morant dished off for a Brandon Clarke dunk to square it up with 6.3 seconds remaining.

Poole got redemption for his role in Curry's ejection when he got free to land a left-handed layup from Donte DiVincenzo's inbound to decide the game at Chase Center.
