Playing basketball requires a bit of charm along with sportsmanship. And no player blends these two together better than Stephen Curry. He is known to pull some swag moves both on and off-court. Atleast at one time during the game, you will find Curry shimmying his shoulders or just tapping his chest and pointing to the sky.

Amongst all of Curry’s signature moves, one of the most popular ones is his No-look celebration. This is when he would shoot the ball and then turn away facing the crowd to celebrate it. This is because he knows that it will definitely go in. He has perfected the move after years of practice in precise shooting.

Steph teaches the young ones how it is done

On Sunday night, the Warriors played against the Houston Rockets in the second away game of the season. Curry had 24 points, with four 3-pointers down the stretch, and Klay Thompson added 19 points. This led the Golden State Warriors to a 106-95 win. While the match itself was worth talking about, something else that Steph did for people’s attention

After a successful shot, Steph pulled his signature move. And people could help but compare it to something similar that happened the previous night. Only, it ended very differently from Sunday’s result.

How to NOT do the No-look move 

On Saturday, the Washington Wizards played against the Memphis Grizzlies. And star player Jordan Poole tried to bring some of the Curry magic to the game. After all, he has seen Stephen do it so many times, right? Only it did not work in his favor. After making a shot, Poole turned around to the crowd and the Memphis bench to celebrate. But he was left embarrassed as he actually did not make the shot.

Despite the small miscue on Poole’s part, he was able to redeem himself later into the game. Poole finished with a game-high 27 points, leading the Wizards to a 113–106 win over Memphis. But the internet did not go easy on him. Some even compared his move to Nick Young’s infamous miss.

Despite the years spent playing alongside Chef Curry, it seems like Poole still has some time to go before he can pull off something like that effortlessly. May he learn and perfect his shots before the Wizards meet the Boston Celtics tonight
