Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry will play in Friday's crucial Game 4 against the Boston Celtics after hurting his left foot in Wednesday's 116-100 loss.

"I'm gonna play. That's all I know right now," Curry said Thursday.

The star guard appeared to injure his foot in the fourth quarter of Game 3 when Al Horford landed on his left leg after diving for a loose ball. Curry stayed in the game after the incident but was pulled out with two minutes remaining.

He avoided a major injury and won't need an MRI, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania.

Curry will attend the team's practice Thursday.

The two-time MVP is averaging 31.3 points, five rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 2.7 steals in three games in the Finals.

The Warriors are looking to avoid a 3-1 deficit against the Celtics. Game 4 is slated for 9 p.m. ET on Friday at TD Garden.
