Stephen Curry seems to make and break his own barriers. The NBA world is perhaps accustomed to seeing Curry pull some of the most insane shots on the court but it still feels fresh every time. However, the four-time champion sometimes takes the skills that make him part of the GOAT conversation to a whole new level.

Recently, a video of Curry hitting five straight shots from across the court has gone viral. Such sights are nearly impossible for fans to believe, and even Ja Morant reacted to the viral video, labeling the reigning Finals MVP as “a menace to society”.

On Sunday, after the Golden State Warriors torched the Houston Rockets, Sports Illustrated posted a video of Curry. In the video, the Warriors superstar pointed toward the hoop at the other end and went on to drill five consecutive full-court shots.

Furthermore, after drilling the fifth shot, Curry proudly ran out of the court screaming. For him, it might even be a normal thing to do, but NBA fans are still rubbing their eyes in disbelief. Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant reacted to the video and said,mark him as a menace to society wtf yooo this crayo.” Meanwhile, most of the internet is debating whether the clip is real or not. One of the fans said, “Even by Curry’s standard, this is UNREAL.” 

Here are some of the reactions from NBA Twitter:

The world will likely be waiting for Curry to pull this stunt during a game soon.
