The Warriors showed off his shooting ability one more time

Stephen Curry has defined a generation of NBA basketball with his outrageous shotmaking that enraptured many fans of the sport. Curry has been the driving force behind the Golden State Warriors‘ four NBA championships since 2015 — and even at 36 years old, the point guard continues to find new ways to impress audiences.

Monday marked the first total solar eclipse in the United States since 2017, and Curry marked the unusual event in a way that only he can: with a circus shot that captured the imagination of fans and teammates alike.

Curry “beats” the solar eclipse

Curry on Monday posted a short clip on Instagram with the caption “Throw it to the eclipse!” The clip itself comes from a shootaround prior to the Warriors‘ 108-106 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Friday night, wherein Curry drains a high-arcing scoop shot, drawing an unforgettable reaction from longtime teammate Kevon Looney.

The short video is especially appropriate to publish on Monday, as millions of Americans have been able to see a rare total solar eclipse as it traverses the contiguous United States. The eclipse’s path of totality began along Mexico‘s Pacific Coast, through 13 states, and it will cross into Canada by Monday night.

While a total solar eclipse is a rarity, Curry drilling crazy shots and scoring buckets of points has long been a nightly occurrence in the NBA. The two-time MVP has played in 71 games this season and is averaging 26.5 points per game while shooting better than 40 percent from 3-point range. His Warriors have clinched no worse than 10th place in the Western Conference, giving them a shot to play postseason basketball if they can make out of the Play-In Tournament.
