“Stephen Curry bodied me?! Come on, y’all really lying”: Nassir Little puts an end to the narrative that the GSW MVP “bodied” him during the Warriors-Blazers clash

Early in the 2nd quarter of the Warriors-Blazer clash, Stephen Curry gave a slight push and stood on Nassir Little’s foot, causing him to fall down, as the GSW MVP got an open layup.

On Friday night, Stephen Curry and his in-form Golden State Warriors team hosted a Damian Lillard-led Portland Trail Blazers team at the Chase Center. Entering the game with 5 straight wins, it was Steve Kerr’s boys who were in the driving seat for the majority of the game. A contest that witnessed only 5 lead changes and 6 ties, ended with GSW grabbing a huge 118-1103 win, improving to a six-game winning streak.

5 players from the Trail Blazers squad recorded double-digit points. However, it was Curry who recorded 32 points, as many as the dynamic duo of Dame and CJ, along with 8 assists, and 7 rebounds on 48% FG and 40% 3PT FG.

Here, have a look at the play.

To hype The Baby-Faced Assassin up, several media channels stated that Nassir was “bodied” by Steph. However, Little was having none of that and made sure to call them out.
