Stephen Curry added 16 points before re-injuring his right ankle in the third quarter. The second-year guard, who originally hurt the ankle in the preseason and aggravated it in the Warriors' season-opening victory against Houston on Wednesday night, did not return.

Ellis, who matched his career high of 46 points against the Rockets, had an off night shooting, but made three 3-pointers and came within two assists of tying his personal best.

Blake Griffin, the top overall pick in 2009 who missed all of last season because of a knee injury, had his second straight double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds while playing in foul trouble most of the second half.
