Steve Kerr called on the NBA to change this rule amid claims that the Rockets' Dillon Brooks is going out of his way to hit Steph Curry's injured thumb.

During the Warriors' 131-116 road loss to the Houston Rockets in Game 5 of their first-round playoff series on Wednesday, Rockets forward Dillon Brooks contacted Warriors superstar guard Stephen Curry's right hand following a shot. No foul was called, but it was significant since Curry has been nursing an injured right thumb for much of the season.

The Rockets veteran has been accused of intentionally swiping down on the Warriors star's ailing thumb on his shooting hand.
