Ahead of their 130-125 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night, Golden State Warriors’ point guard, Stephen Curry, took his trademark of sinking shots from the tunnel during pregame warmups to a heightened level.
Renowned for his ability to make jump shots from the entrance tunnels or the first few rows of the stands, Curry has established a distinct reputation for this during his warm-up sessions.
Prior to facing the Clippers, Curry changed things up by shooting the ball from the opposite tunnel, propelling it across the court and into the basket.
The adept three-point shooter began by strolling towards the path connecting the tunnel and the court, creating the illusion that he might be heading back to the locker room. However, he abruptly halted, turned around, and directed his focus towards the distant basket.
With a brief run-up, Curry effortlessly launched the ball into the air, showcasing his precision in making the shot.
After witnessing the ball gracefully curve through the air, Curry celebrated by raising his arms and breaking into a dance, sparking excitement among the cheering crowd.
Adding to the anticipation, Curry is getting ready for a one-on-one three-point contest against New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu. This challenge originated six months ago when Ionescu, having won the WNBA 3-point competition, threw down the gauntlet.
Curry graciously accepted the challenge, and now, the showdown is set to unfold during the NBA All-Star Weekend, taking center stage in Indianapolis.
In the ongoing season, Curry has been maintaining an impressive average of 28. points, along with 4.4 rebounds and 4.9 assists for the Warriors. As of the latest update, the team holds a record of 26 wins and 25 losses.
