Stephen Curry was at it again on Tuesday night, putting up an electrifying performance against the Boston Celtics that had fans on their feet.
His 33 points and 6 three-pointers were wildly impressive but nothing was more shocking and exciting than the final seconds of the game, when Curry posted a mind-blowing shot from downtown to seal Boston’s fate.
After the game, LeBron James had to hop online to celebrate his friend, posting “🧑🏽🍳🙏🏾” on Twitter.

Honestly, that was all he needed to say.
With just a couple of emojis, everyone knew what James was talking about.
This obviously wasn’t the first time that Curry scored this way but it had been some time since fans saw him create such a clutch three.
He’s one of the few players in the league who can be turned to in moments like this.
There was a time when Curry seemed to be doing this night after night but it hasn’t been as common over the last few years.
Therefore, the final seconds of Tuesday night’s game were a good reminder of just how special Curry is.
It helped lead to a very important win for the Warriors, who are now 13-14 and desperately trying to climb higher in the Western Conference standings.
They are in a tough spot because they are without Draymond Green for a few more weeks and the rest of their roster has been inconsistent at best.
Curry’s final shot on Tuesday provided a much-needed jolt of energy into the team, the fanbase, and really the whole league.
