Stephen Curry made the shot of the season so far in the third quarter of Tuesday night's Golden State Warriors game in Memphis by banking in this wild 29-foot circus shot.
Curry stole a Grizzlies pass on the defensive end and had to use some fancy dribbling to keep possession as two defenders tried to steal it back. After reaching halfcourt, Curry got bumped by Russ Smith and tossed up the prayer looking for the foul call as he fell to the floor. He didn't get the foul call, but incredibly the ball went in off the backboard, so Curry scored the three points either way. That's how good Curry's playing right now: He can make his shots even when he's not trying.
The reigning NBA MVP finished with 28 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists on the night as the Warriors won the game 100-84 to stay undefeated after 9 games. The Grizzlies fell to 3-6 and have now lost four straight games.
