Steph Curry Makes Insane Buzzer Beater To Lift Warriors Over Suns

Steph Curry is going to have quite the catalog of insane buzzer beaters by the end of his career. There’s no doubt the Golden State Warriors legend has had a flair for the dramatic his entire career.

That continued on Saturday night, when Steph Curry hit an absolute dagger of a buzzer beater to stun the Phoenix Suns in a crucial Western Conference matchup, 113-112.

Take a look at this absurd shot by the greatest shooter ever.

Those three were the most important of a 30-point performance by Curry that saw him make nine threes for 27 of his 30 points. And, they had to have all of them.

Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker had put the team ahead, 112-110, with 35 seconds left. Phoenix got a stop, but a Bradley Beal missed three as the shot clock expired gave the Warriors ball side-out prior to Steph Curry’s dagger three.

When I see that clip, I instantly go back to the dramatic buzzer-beater that Steph Curry made in a Saturday night prime-time game back in 2016 against the Oklahoma City Thunder during the Warriors’ record 73-win season.

For my money, that was the most downright diabolical buzzer beater in recent NBA history. But, that won’t be any consolation to Suns fans. It can’t feel good to lose a game like that.

Steph Curry is going to need a lot of late-game heroics if he wants the Warriors to get anywhere close to another NBA Championship.

Steph is having an outstanding year, averaging 28 points per game on 46/42/90 splits shooting. But, the fact that his fellow splash brother Klay Thompson has significantly regressed into one of the least efficient players in the league has really hampered the Warriors’ upside. Currently, they’re fighting for their playoff lives, sitting in the final play-in spot in the Western Conference at 25-25.
