Although the Golden State Warriors couldn’t complete a comeback against the New York Knicks for their second consecutive loss, Steph Curry recorded a must-see highlight.
While he’s known for his long-distance 3-pointers, on Thursday, it was his handles that made the highlight reel.
Golden State’s Most Valuable Player candidate fakes spinning towards the middle of the court and drove to the baseline en route of the bucket. On the way, Curry left Randle behind with an ankle-breaking display. Curry finished his run past Randle to the bucket with a layup.
