Steph Curry's Buzzer Beater Goes Viral in Warriors-Wizards
The Golden State Warriors traveled to D.C. to take on the Washington Wizards on Monday night, getting superstar point guard Steph Curry back on the court following a three-game absence.
Curry finished the first half with eight points and four assists on 2-6 shooting, facing former backcourt mate Jordan Poole, who led the game with 14 first-half points on 5-10 shooting.
Ahead of the halftime buzzer, Poole made a statement against his former squad, draining a 28-foot three-pointer with just ten seconds left. Washington's excitement was short-lived, as Curry found separation in the corner to drain a buzzer-beating three, taking a 54-45 lead at the break.
The highlight shot from Curry has gone viral on social media, with the NBA and several other big accounts sharing it.
Via NBA: "Pump fake. Side-step. Calmly hit the 3 to beat the buzzer"
The highlight was so great, that the official NBA account actually shared it twice.
Via NBA: "Steph [to] Dray [to] Steph"
The Golden State Warriors account got in on the action, sharing Curry's unreal buzzer beater.
