Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry continues to accomplish feats that can even surprise himself.
After a 56-point explosion against the Orlando Magic, Curry had a highlight against the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday that he didn’t do since the 2018-19 campaign.
Midway through the fourth quarter with the 76ers up 109-102, Golden State forced a turnover as they found a wide-open Curry on the other side of the court. Buddy Hield made the steal as he threw the ball to the star guard, who jumped in the air as he threw down the one-handed dunk.
Dunking is a skill Curry can do but it doesn’t happen often. Case in point, that dunk marked the first Curry had since the 2018-19 season.
