Stephen Curry missing three-pointers always makes for news. Considering the sharpshooter’s stellar fact of draining 42.8% from beyond the arc in his career, a miss, even if it is a turnaround three, grabs attention instantly.
And the 34-year-old missed on in the Golden State Warriors 131-110 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. With 4:14 remaining in the first quarter and the Grizzlies leading 28-21, Curry had a pass coming from Donte DiVincenzo and he let it fly from the three-point range, turning around and making a dash at the other end — only for the ball to hit the rim and bounce out.

Curry ended his evening by top-scoring for the Warriors with 29 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists. He went 10-of-19 from the field and 4-of-8 from downtown. But it wasn’t enough to pip the Grizzlies as the Warriors endured their third loss in a row on the road.
