Washington Wizards center Alex Len thought he did enough to deny Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry a good look at the basket. Apparently, he was mistaken.
The two-time MVP completely schooled the clueless Len in a crazy sequence in the Dubs' hosting of the Wizards at Chase Center on Friday.
After faking out Len, Curry kicked the ball out mid-jump to Draymond Green at the top of the key. The Wizards 7-footer thought he did a good job of containing Chef Curry and was about to return to the paint.
Little did he know–and the rest of the Wizards roster–that the three-time Warriors champion already slipped by him and got a wide-open look from past the arc. It was too late by the time Len could react.
Green swung the ball back to Curry, who splashed a triple right over Len's face. Here's the painful moment if you're a Wizards fan.

Apart from being arguably the deadliest shooter the game has ever seen, Stephen Curry is also quite the cunning player. Don't let the baby face fool you, the Warriors star has all the tricks in the bag to make defenders look foolish on the floor.
Well, it didn't take much for Curry to make a fool out of Len on this play. A simple misdirection pretty much got the job done for the Warriors sharpshooter.
