The Golden State Warriors defeated the Houston Rockets on Monday night, and Steph Curry had a viral shot over Dillon Brooks. Crossing Brooks over and getting him to bite on a pump fake, Curry then splashed the three and had a hilarious reaction running back up the court.

When asked about this play after the game, Curry said, "Well, we know what he's about, and his reputation. I don't get caught up in that, I just play basketball, so you obviously let the game do the talking. Whenever you know a team is coming in hungry to beat you - there's a lot of history with [Brooks], specifically, but at the end of the day you just hoop. The results speak for themselves, and I like to have fun out here. Especially fourth quarter when it's winning time."

As Curry mentioned, there is history between Brooks and the Rockets, dating back to his time with the Memphis Grizzlies. The Warriors and Grizzlies faced each other in the 2022 Western Conference Semi-Finals, which included several back-and-forth moments between Brooks and Warriors players. This continued the next regular season, and will likely continue for a while.

Winning this battle, Curry and the Warriors came out on top in the game, and also got this viral moment with an unreal dribbling and shotmaking display.
