Stephen Curry hits the most ridiculous floater ever (Video)
By John Buhler
Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry sinks the most insane floater after getting fouled by Utah Jazz point guard Shelvin Mack on Thursday night.
The Utah Jazz were supposed to give the Golden State Warriors a tough matchup on Thursday night at Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City. Utah usually has a strong homecourt advantage and the Jazz are the best defensive team in the NBA.
However, the Warriors have Stephen Curry at point guard and the Jazz have Shelvin Mack. Watch Curry make Mack out for a fool on this ridiculous made floater after getting fouled.
The Warriors would have a massive 26-5 lead over the Jazz with a little less than four minutes left in the first quarter. Curry would dribble to his left and would proceed to get fouled on the arm by Mack as he passed him by.
Curry would toss the basketball up to the heavens after getting fouled. His prayer of a shot attempt was answered with a swish and an and-one. These are the kind of offensive plays that make Curry a one of a kind player. For others it would look flukey, but for Curry he’s actually planning to make these ridiculous shots.
Golden State has found its groove in the early part of the season. The Warriors are having a great time of late. Klay Thompson scored 60 points Monday night without playing in the fourth quarter. Golden State humiliated the rival Los Angeles Clippers on national television on Wednesday night.

Now Curry is sinking floaters that have like a one percent chance of going in against the best defensive team in the NBA. It’s great to be Curry or really any member of the Warriors organization. The only two teams that can stop Golden State are the Cleveland Cavaliers and the San Antonio Spurs. Utah is not one of the those teams.
