Kevin Harlan, Stephen Curry
During the game between his Golden State Warriors and the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night, Stephen Curry humorously called out Kevin Harlan for trying to jinx him. As he missed his first free throw of the season, the two-time MVP pointed directly at the TNT play-by-play announcer because of this very reason.
Early in the season, Stephen Curry is performing at an MVP level, demonstrating every aspect of his brilliance. In just three games, he is already averaging 33.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists and is having one of his best seasons, shooting over 44% from outside the arc. But his most remarkable accomplishment this year may be going 22 for 22 at the free throw line, a record that was shattered by none other than NBA commentator Kevin Harlan.
Curry entered the game having converted all 22 of his free throw attempts this season, plus one in the first quarter, and his Warriors were behind 54-50 when he stepped to the line in the second quarter. Curry’s season has been perfect, according to TNT announcer Harlan, who said: “Steph Curry at the line … he has not missed this year.” Curry missed the shot and the broadcasters for TNT were then pointed out by him. The analyst duo of Reggie Miller and Candace Parker didn’t waste any time in blaming Harlan.
Stephen Curry and the Warriors through 4 games
The Warriors’ 2-2 record over the league since the start of the new season have served as further evidence of Stephen Curry’s unrivalled shooting talent. This season, the Golden State Warriors were travelling for the first time. The Dubs would hope to have a strong road record after starting the season 2-1 at home and their first visit was Phoenix, where they were defeated.
The Warriors superstar is averaging 30.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 5.2 assists in 33 minutes per game during the first four games of the 2022–23 NBA season. Despite a small statistical power, Curry is shooting 45.8 percent from the field and 45 percent from 3-point range. Curry once again created history by recording his 100th career regular-season game with at least 30 points and seven made 3-pointers last week against the Kings.
Curry just led the Golden State Warriors to their fourth NBA title and despite the fact that he will turn 35 this season, he is still able to add to his collection of awards. Curry still appears to be in the peak of his career based on the way he plays. Golden State boasts one of the deepest rosters in the league, which adds to the excitement and Curry , one of the top performers in the game, consistently puts on a show as he approaches his prime in Year 14.
Fans react to Kevin Harlan jinxing Curry’s free throw
At the beginning of the season, Curry went 22 for 22 from the charity stripe, shooting a perfect 100%. In the second quarter against the Suns, he attempted free throws, shattering his 100% record as his first free throw attempt after a foul came as TNT’s Kevin Harlan was discussing how Steph hasn’t missed a free throw this season. Steph appeared to know why he missed since he turned to the TNT bench right after as the ball bounced and dropped out.
This is how the fans around YouTube reacted to this hilarious moment:
NBA fans around Twitter had their fair share of reactions too:
The Warriors should continue to be a contender for many years to come because to the amount of emerging talent in the organization. Curry is still performing at a high level and will likely be mentioned again for MVP. Curry’s status as one of the all-time greats appears to be growing, and if Golden State can maintain its health, the Warriors will have the chance to defend their championship.
