Golden State Warriors fans thought they’re turning over new leaf after they acquired Dennis Schroder from the Brooklyn Nets but the worst of the worst happened as Stephen Curry and company were smacked by the Memphis Grizzlies,
The team not only recorded their fifth worst loss in its history, 93-144, but Curry also had one of his worst performances ever since becoming a superstar.
The Chef was not able to cook as he scored just two points in 25 minutes of play. He had the second worst +/- among all players at -41, trailing Draymond Green by just one point.
Green had zero point, zero rebound, zero assist, four personal fouls, and four turnovers in the game.
The loss came less than 24 hours after Forbes the list of most valuable NBA teams wherein the Warriors came out on top with $9 billion worth. Fans credit Curry for it.
With the loss, the internet was quick to make fun of the two-time MVP.
“Hey Steph we need you to go off against the Grizzlies Tonight”

Is this Stephen Curry’s worst game as a superstar?
Curry had five games where he registered zero point. All those games happened before 2013, his breakout year.
This could be the worst day of his prime years according to Stat Muse as this was his lowest output since becoming a star.
He once scored just 2 points in a game – on March 18, 2018 – but that was because he had to leave early because of an injury. He played just two minutes in that game.
His second lowest output as an established star on meaningful minutes happened on March of 2022 when he was limited to just 3 points by the Boston Celtics.
His third worst performance was on January 2 of 2016 when they played and lost to the Denver Nuggets in overtime. He scored 5 points in 14 minutes of play.
With the loss, the Warriors fell to the 12th spot of Western Conference standings with 14-12, just half a game above the San Antonio Spurs.
