Oakland (United States) (AFP) - Golden State center Andrew Bogut suffered a broken nose in the second quarter of the Warriors' 123-101 pre-season victory over Houston and said he expects to miss two games.

Bogut suffered the injury Thursday when the Rockets' K.J. McDaniels attempted a slam dunk and hit Bogut's nose on the follow through after missing the shot.

"Just more pissed off that I got called for the foul because I didn't touch him at all," Bogut said.
