Whenever Steph Curry gets in the zone, the Warriors can just sit back and watch magic happen.
There are few players as electric when they get going than Warriors guard Steph Curry. Between his elite shooting, handles and ability to just make any offensive play you could think of, he’s an absolute joy for any NBA fan to watch.
That’s especially true when you see him go off like he did in the first quarter for the Warriors on Thursday night’s home-opener against the Clippers.
Putting it plainly, Curry went scorched earth on the visitors from LA.

And just when you thought he was done, he kept going.
It was literally a flawless first quarter from Curry as he went 9-of-9 from the field including 5-of-5 from 3-point range for 25 points. For good measure, the Warriors superstar also added two rebounds, an assist, a steal, and a block.
Naturally, NBA Twitter, including some of his biggest peers, were loving every second.

Steph Curry is truly a work of art when he’s locked in on the basketball court.
Watching performances like this, the only thing we can truly say is that we’re grateful that Curry and the NBA have returned to our lives.
