Stephen Curry has hit some miraculous shots in his career. Let’s break down the five-best shots the Golden State Warriors’ superstar has ever made.
Tough shots and Stephen Curry go hand-in-hand. The Golden State Warriors have ridden Curry’s golden shooting touch to the top of the NBA mountain and will be relying heavily on his prowess to bring them back into title contention next season.
There has never been a player quite like Curry. Sure, we have seen prolific 3-point shooters before. Old names like Larry Bird, Reggie Miller and Ray Allen come to mind. However, Curry is far above the rest of the league in terms of pure shot creation and the ability to hit deep bombs off of the dribble.
While James Harden and Damian Lillard are pushing the envelope in shooting, it was Curry who got the ball rolling in the first place. The two-time MVP showed us all that jump-shooting teams can win championships and forever changed the game of basketball.
We still have a few more months before we will see Curry suit up again. While we wait, let’s take this opportunity to recount five of his best shots to date and rank them from worst to best.
