Curry is arguably the most box office star in the NBA today.
He has completely reinvented the three-point game over the course of his career.
His performances over the past few years - leading the Warriors to three titles in four years - have seen him mentioned as one of the best players in NBA history.
Fans from all over the world tune in to see him in action, with a highlight play almost always expected.
But while his in-game talents are undeniably blockbuster, his pregame ritual of trick shots have also become a staple of his game.
During home gams, Curry will often try a deep three from the player's tunnel along the baseline.
However, ahead of Game 5 against the LA Clippers, Curry took it one step further with an outrageous attempt.
Standing in the players tunnel, Curry picked up the ball and then launched the ball towards the bucket on the other end of the court.
The gathering crowd watched in amazement as it curved in the air towards the basket and it came agonisingly close to dropping in, bouncing off the rim.
Fans on social media couldn't believe their eyes at Curry's shot.
One person tweeted: "The fact that the shot is even close.. nvm that close.. holyfield."
Another posted: "Still stunned by the accuracy: the ball touched the rim..."
