Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry is also known to some as The Babyface Assassin. He is one of the more likable players in the NBA. He rarely gets out of character or gets into altercations, but when he does, he can make it a long night for his opponent.
If you wake up the beast inside Stephen Curry, he can take things to an entirely different level. Here are three times the two-time league MVP went into savage mode.
March 19, 2017, the Dubs faced the Oklahoma City Thunder. It was 5.3 seconds left in the first half. Players were lining up for a jump ball between Taj Gibson and Andre Iguodala. When Curry and Thunders' Semaj Christon and Russell Westbrook got into a shoving match, they were fighting over position literally before the jump ball. Neither team threw any punches, so it was no ejections.
After clearing up the scuffle, everyone adequately lined up for the jump ball. This time everyone behaved, but Curry wasn't letting the disrespect slide. The ball went up, and the Warriors controlled the tip. Stephen Curry immediately took off down court, and after a pass from Klay Thompson with the clock running out, Curry launched a three-point bomb and boom, nothing but net.
As soon as the shot went in, Stephen Curry childishly sprinted to the locker room, knowing he got the last laugh. This was Curry's third most savage moment.
Curry's second most savage moment was against the Boston Celtics. At the expense of Jaylen Brown, who was a rookie at the time. Brown did a little trash talking to Stephen Curry a few moments earlier, but as the third quarter ended, Brown got stuck defending Curry one on one, and that's never fun.
Curry gave Brown a move, then pumped-faked him into jumping, stepped around Brown, and knocked a three-pointer as the buzzer went off. Stephen Curry turned to Brown after and let him have it. All Brown could do was quietly walk to the bench.
Finally, the most savage moment of Curry's career came after one of his altercations with Los Angeles Clippers' Patrick Beverly. Curry doesn't look for trouble, but Beverly does. What Beverly didn't know is, you don't want problems with Stephen Curry. It was a foul called after Curry grabbed an offensive rebound.
After some light pushing, the game went on, and Curry went off. That felt like the last time in the game when Beverly even touched Stephen Curry. The Warriors superstar finished the game with 42 points and even sealed the deal with a game-winning layup.

These are just a few of the many savage moments of Curry's career. There are many more, and your list could be different, but these are the top three moments for now.
