“This guy is crazy” Stephen Curry hitting the NIGHT NIGHT celebration after making an unreal shot has fans in total disbelief
Stephen Curry performs the celebration
On Sunday night, Stephen Curry made an off-balance 3-pointer that helped the Golden State Warriors defeat the Houston Rockets as the Warriors finally secured a victory away from home. The most notable moment was when he gave his greatest “night night” celebration to date just after the shot that made the fans on social media go crazy.
The Houston Rockets were crushed by the Splash Brothers on Sunday night, giving them their first road win of the year. While Stephen Curry supported, Klay Thompson started the scoring early, and later, he started to become scorching to help the team win. The most effective plan when facing Curry and the Warriors is to prepare for the unexpected and that’s exactly what happened in Sunday’s matchup.
Stephen Curry was being guarded by Eric Gordon with around 40 seconds left in the game as the shot clock was winding down. Curry had to take a step back and attempt a fadeaway shot with a high-arching three-pointer because of Gordon’s solid defense.
The reigning NBA Finals MVP broke out his now-famous “night night” celebration, which he first performed during Golden State’s 2022 playoff run, as soon as he made the incredible shot.
Fans, players, and even a Rockets assistant coach who was holding his hands over his head in disbelief were all stunned by the dagger three.

In contrast to Eric Gordon’s 14 points, KJ Martin added 12 to the tally, dropping Houston to 3-14, the poorest record in the Western Conference, as a result of the defeat.

Fans on Twitter also couldn’t believe what they saw:
With a total of 23 three-pointers, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Andrew Wiggins made basketball history. This achievement is exceptional, as the trio is the first in NBA history to achieve this sum.
He now ranks third in the league in terms of scoring and has fantastic shooting % and is averaging 32.2 points per game so far this season. If Curry persists in this form, with others to support him, the defending might aim for a repeat this season.
