Curry says playing for USA an 'adjustment'

ABU DHABI — Stephen Curry admits playing on a stacked USA Olympic team where he is not expected to carry the offense like he does with the Golden State Warriors in the NBA is requiring a great deal of adjustment.

The star point guard scored just three points in 22 minutes during USA's 98-92 win over Australia in a warm-up game in Abu Dhabi on Monday that saw the Americans almost blow a 20-point lead in the last 15 minutes.
