We have a massive game coming up on Tuesday night. The Golden State Warriors will put their four-game winning streak to the test against the Dallas Mavericks, who for their part, are winners of seven straight.
Something’s got to give.
Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry, Luka Doncic Battle for Half-Court Shot Supremacy
There was a bit of gamesmanship between the two teams’ top superstars ahead of tipoff. As the Warriors and the Mavs went on their pre-game warm-ups, Stephen Curry and Luka Doncic somehow found themselves on the halfcourt line at the same time. This resulted in an epic shootout between two of the hottest superstars in the NBA today:

Luka may have bitten off more than he could chew here.
For starters, Doncic’s first shot (or at least the one we saw in the video) was wide to the left. Curry missed his first attempt, which saw Luka coming extremely close to draining his second shot. Steph wasn’t going to miss two in a row, though.
It looked like Luka was complaining about Steph stepping over the halfcourt line as the latter drained his shot. Curry was having none of it, though, and he savagely walked away after proving once again that he is the greatest shooter of all time.
All this won’t matter, though, once the game tips off. I’m pretty sure Doncic would be more than happy to lose 10 half-court shootouts against Curry in favor of a win for the Mavs.
