5 Steph Curry trick shots that will make your hair stand on end

3. From the tunnel

There are really two variables here that are upping the level of difficulty. The first is obviously the distance. He’s likely 50-feet or more from the basket, which makes this essentially a half-court shot, which he handles with basically a flick of the wrist.

The other is the accuracy needed to make a shot this deep from the corner. Having the backboard in play raises the likelihood of a halfcourt shot going in but it also aids in visual discrimination and gives a clearer target to line up with. The lesson here is Steph Curry doesn’t need visual aids.
