Young Warriors fans loses it over Stephen Curry’s big shot (Video)
By Will Osgood
A young girl went crazy Thursday night when Stephen Curry hit a key three-pointer late in the Warriors win against the Phoenix Suns.
The Golden State Warriors–besides being the best team in the NBA this season–are the most fun team to watch in the NBA, especially within the confines of Oracle Arena where they play their home games.

Warriors fans love their team, as they should. They make up the loudest arena in the league, and the most exciting amosphere to play in when the home team performs as they have this season. Steph Curry gave them just one more reason to cheer Thursday night, and cheer they did. Especially this young girl.
Curry’s go-ahead 3-pointer came with 6.8 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, in typical Warriors fashion. After unsuccessfully trying two separate attempts at the rim–first by Curry, then by Harrison Barnes (who would hit the game-winner in the lane as time expired)–the ball found its way into the hands of the deadly 3-point shooter Klay Thompson.
Thompson, despite only needing a two to take the lead sprinted for the 3-point line, only to have his attempt at an open shot thwarted by T.J. Warren (who had his best game as a professional Thursday night). So Thompson calmly dished to fellow marksman, and “Splash Brother” Steph Curry for the open dagger.
In typical Kevin Harlan fashion, Curry’s shot was echoed by “GOOOOOOOD!” for the television audience. But TNT found this young girl going crazy as well, which only added to the fun of the moment.
Sadly for the Suns, they lost another heart-breaker, despite taking the lead two seconds later.
The enduring image from this game, though, will that girl going crazy.
