“The way Stephen Curry plays in awe-inspiring”: Will Hardy
After the game, coach Hardy had high praises for the 6-foot-3 GSW sharpshooter.
The 34-year-old head coach spoke about Steph’s abilities and how his game manages to mesmerize everyone. Further, Will revealed that he had to force himself from “just watching Stephen Curry play” and actually put all his attention on coaching his squad. Lauding Chef Curry, he said:
“His ability to think, his ability to adapt within a game is second-to-none. He’s seen every defense known to man. I’ve been in a lot of coach’s meeting(s) where you’re trying to figure out a way to keep Steph Curry under wraps… He’s a really special player.
He’s one of those guys when you’re coaching, there are moments you find yourself having to snap out of it. Like “oh my god, I was just watching Steph Curry play, I wasn’t focused on the game”. The way he plays is awe-inspiring.”
Jazz coach Will Hardy admits he sometimes stops to watch Stephen Curry and has to “snap out of it” and remember to coach. Hardy says Curry keeps getting better from even 6-7 years ago. “He’s just as terrifying today as he was then.” pic.twitter.com/B4oX12yYor

Steph jumps up on the MVP Ladder
The Warriors had a turbulent start to the season. Now, despite being 10th in the West, the SF-based organization has gathered some momentum by winning 7 of their last 9 games. Curry’s performance has been the main reason for GSW’s recent success.
The 4-time champ has been averaging a staggering 31.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 7.1 assists while shooting the ball at an incredibly efficient 52.7/44.5/90.4 split.
In the most-recent MVP Ladder, The Baby-Faced Assassin even jumped up 5 spots and now sits in the 5th position only behind the likes of Doncic, Tatum, Jokic, and Antetokounmpo.
