San Francisco, CA – Stephen Curry has made some incredible shots throughout his career with the Golden State Warriors. He does it so often it doesn't even surprise teammates or the coaching staff anymore. Thursday night against the Memphis Grizzlies, he made a three that he couldn't even believe he made.

It even got an unexpected reaction out of Steve Kerr.
“Nothing catches me by surprise anymore with Steph. It was a two-for-one situation. If anything, I was surprised at his reaction to making the shot…But I fully expected that shot to go in,” the Warriors coach told ClutchPoints.

We all remember the shot against the Los Angeles Clippers where Curry's dribbling around a host of defenders, then turns around and knocks down a triple. Some consider that to be the best highlight of his career.

The Warriors star barely had a look at the basket before launching it over a fully extended Anthony Davis and multiple defenders.
Curry's made so many that now people expect every wild shot Curry takes to go in. But this one-foot floater from a few feet behind the three-point line was still unexpected. It was just another display of why Curry is so special.
Thursday, the Warriors lost a close game to Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies in overtime. The defeat snapped their season-opening four-game winning streak. Next, the Dubs will face the Oklahoma City Thunder, and Jonathan Kuminga is potentially making his NBA debut.
