Even Stephen Curry Couldn't Believe He Made Stepback Three Over Two Clippers Defenders
Stephen Curry even amazes himself on the court sometimes.
One of those instances occurred in the second quarter of the Warriors’ 113—112 loss to the Clippers on Saturday, when Curry hit a stepback three over two Los Angeles defenders. The Warriors sharpshooter immediately put his hands over his face in disbelief at the difficulty of the shot he had just hit.

That's usually the expression left on the faces of defenders attempting to stop Curry from getting to his spots, which is a task that is far easier said than done.
The Warriors star's play looks even more impressive when viewed from a camera angle on the floor, a video that was posted onto the NBA’s account on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Poor Daniel Theis looked like he wasn’t even on the same continent as Curry on this play—that’s how much space was created. It was all in a day’s work for Curry, who poured in 22 points while handing out 11 assists in the loss to the Clippers.
