Stephen Curry · Fully established into his spot as the 2023-24 NBA season’s No. 1 scorer with the game hanging in the balance and the clock operating against him, Steph Curry certainly wasn’t one to complain about having time to plan his heartbreaker against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Afforded the luxury of navigating his steps with 15 seconds remaining in a tied, high-scoring affair, the former two-time Most Valuable Player eases closer to the basket, like predator attacking prey before subtly using a between-the-leg dribble to escape Lu Dort’s defense. Free to glide into the lane, Curry uses finesse, hanging a high-arching finger roll out just out of Chet Holmgren’s reach on the way to a game-winning bucket. Curry’s heroics provided the Golden State Warriors with a second-consecutive at-the-buzzer victory, allowing them to open the In-Season Tournament in memorable fashion on November 3, 2023. The 10-time All-Star dazzled throughout with a game-high 30 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and five 3-pointers. · State of Mint
