You knew he’d probably do it. And he did it.
Steph Curry, the face of the Golden State Warriors franchise and dynasty, put his name in the hat for the 2021 Three-Point Shootout at All-Star Weekend, and then he won. Curry scored a whopping 31 points in the first round to advance to the final, where he bested Mike Conley Jr. and Jayson Tatum to take home his second three-point contest trophy.
Final shot.

That’s our Steph.
It never gets old watching Curry shoot, whether it’s at practice, during pregame warmups, in a game, or in the shootout. And now he’ll try and show off those same skills during the actual All-Star Game, where he’ll be on Team LeBron for the first time.
Well done Steph, and congratulations from all of Dub Nation. In news that surprises absolutely no one, you’re still the greatest shooter on the planet, whether there’s a defender in your face or a rack of basketballs waiting for you.
