After 15 seasons in the NBA, defenders should know to deny Stephen Curry the ball in late-game situations. Fail to do so, and he will put you to sleep. That is exactly what happened last night when Curry hit a three-pointer with less than a second left in regulation.

Curry's clutch moment delivered the Golden State Warriors a 113-112 victory over the Phoenix Suns. Even better, it created a highlight moment for a pair of retro Under Armour sneakers that have not even been released yet. Check out Under Armour's social media post below to watch the thrilling play.

The moment felt like a scene straight out of an award-winning movie. Number 30 scored 30 points in front of his home crowd in a pair of black and white kicks that draw inspiration from awards season.

Curry wore the Curry 4 FloTro in the 'Suit & Tie' colorway. The model is a revamped version of Curry's fourth signature sneaker with a fan-favorite colorway that dates back all the way back to Curry's second signature sneaker. Below is a detailed look at the hoop shoes and tentative release information.

The Curry 4 FloTro in the 'Suit & Tie' is rumored to be released on Friday, February 23, 2024. Other colorways of the Curry 4 FloTro cost $150, so it is safe to assume the shoes will be in that price range. 

Fans wanting to shop Curry's new and retro kicks can do so on the Curry Brand website. Over the past few years, Curry and his eponymous brand have done an incredible job of reprising retro models in new and OG colorways.

Curry's fourth signature sneaker will always be synonymous with his second NBA Championship and MVP award. The Curry 4 FloTro builds on the original design with more design and support while keeping its unbelievable traction pattern that hugs the floor.

Well into his 15th NBA season, there are no signs of Curry or the Warriors slowing down. Players give up position to Curry, and he puts them to sleep - some things never get old. Stay locked into FanNationKicks.com for all your sneaker news from the sports world.
