NBA says Steph Curry double-dribbled before game-sealing and-1

The NBA officially announced that the and-1 bucket that Steph Curry scored to seal Game 5 for the Golden State Warriors should not have happened in the first place.

In the final 30 seconds of Game 5 of the Warriors' first-round series against the Sacramento Kings, Curry was trying to kill some clock with his team up 119-114. After turning the corner near the top of the key, the 35-year-old seemingly picked up his dribble, drove toward the paint and then began his dribble again. He then drew a foul on a made basket for a potential 3-point play at the free-throw line.
