Stephen Curry continues to struggle

We have truly never seen a cold stretch like this from Stephen Curry. While sure, there have been occasional explosions such as his record-breaking performance in the All-Star Game, this is the worst 3-point shooting season of Curry’s legendary career.

Curry is shooting a career-low 37.5% from the 3-point line this season. He’s made just 28 of his last 85 attempts (32.9%) and has been largely unable to string together those momentum-shifting heat checks that made him infamous.

Without Curry packing a punch, the Warriors have felt more bark than bite. He isn’t breathing new life into the team when they need it most and those not-so-rare misses are leaving the Dubs without direction on offense.

It doesn’t help that everyone else has struggled, as well. The Warriors are shooting the 8th best 3-point percentage this season but have dipped to 16th since January.

Something has to give and if I had to bet my money on Curry snapping out of this slump to reignite the Dubs, I’d feel comfortable doing it.
