The three-point king Stephen Curry is not just famous for his shooting ability during games, but also during shoot-around and practice. The veteran guard has always managed to hype the crowd with his pre-game rituals such as tunnel shots, high floaters, and half-court shots. However, the 2x MVP’s latest attempt to get some cheers from the crowd ended with an unfortunate twist.
The Warriors hosted the Milwaukee Bucks today for their final matchup of the regular season. During the warm-up ahead of the game, fans who were looking forward to Curry’s pre-game ritual ended up disappointed after the four-time NBA champion uncharacteristically missed a full-court shot by some distance.

Meanwhile, Stephen Curry joined the Warriors, who were on a 5-game win streak, only to go on a 0-3 run since his return. The DubNation was looking forward to the team ending its losing streak against the Bucks today.
Curry, who was warming up to get his first win since the return, pulled up from the other end of the court to hype the crowd. It’s no wonder the 4x NBA champion has made unbelievable shots look easy. However, this time, Curry’s full-court shot attempt ended up as a nightmare for a ball boy, who took a hit to his face while standing under the rim.
In a video shared by the Warriors team on Twitter, fans continue to mock and question the 3-point leader for his reckless attempt. Here are some of the fans’ reactions on Twitter:
