It's Christmas Day for the Golden State Warriors, and Stephen Curry's crossover on Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday is a gift that all NBA fans can cherish.

Curry's nonchalant dribble past halfcourt, behind-the-back transitioning into a sweet hesitation move, leading to an inevitable bucket is a sight for sore eyes.
Playing only five games this past season due to suffering a broken hand, Curry was limited to supporting his teammates and observing from the bench. For a two-time MVP and three-time NBA champion, it must have been a devastating feeling to see a team that was consistently at the top of the Western Conference for so many years to plummet to the bottom of the conference with a 15-50 record and no invitation to the bubble in Orlando.
With Klay Thompson out due to suffering another brutal Achilles injury after recovering from an ACL tear that he suffered in Game 6 of the 2018-19 Finals against the Toronto Raptors as well as an unhealthy Draymond Green, the responsibility to carry the team out of its slump has fallen on none other than Stephen Curry.
Curry, known for his insane ball-handling skills and unlimited range, has the potential to restore hope to the team's fans all across the world. The behind-the-back and hesi combination may have only led to a bucket, but it is still a promising sign for the team and its fans. The Warriors, already 0-1 on the season, and en route to losing to the Milwaukee Bucks on Christmas Day, maybe giving fans flashbacks of last year. However, with Curry on the floor, at least fans can be assured that the Warriors will not go down without a fight.
