Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry always seems to find a way to amaze and somehow put the ball in the basket.

He is a two-time Most Valuable Player and perhaps the greatest all-around shooter the sport has ever seen.

Here’s a look at some of his most insane shots so far in his storied career.

Half-Court Wrist Flick Bucket

Curry sunk this half-courter as the first quarter expired in a game against the Los Angeles Clippers in 2018.

The shot is a great example of how Curry can take advantage of his incomparable range and fast release time. With the flick of the wrist, Curry hit paydirt.

Dribble and Drain

In this clip, Curry dribbes across four different defenders and then proceeds to drain a tough shot.

Few players would be able to pull off this fadeaway three with such ease.

Off-Balance Hail Mary

Curry wanted the foul with this shot but instead took an amazing off-balance close to half-court prayer that hit the backboard and dropped. Not only that, the shot was one-handed. 

Fake Pass and Reverse Layup

Curry had his share of flashy plays that were not three pointers including this one.

Curry effortlessly fakes a pass to his teammate and makes a beautiful reverse layup to finish off the play.

Miracle Floater

Curry was able to have his prayers answered again in 2015 after he lofted up an underhand floater as he was falling that put him on the floor.

It was all worth it though as it is one of his craziest shots to this date. 

Spin Move Circus Shot

Curry was able to spin move past some solid defense during the 2017 Western Conference Finals on this play.

He finishes with another circus shot layup that helped the Warriors sweep the Spurs in that series to reach the finals yet again.

Over the Shoulder ‘And1’

Here is another prayer that was answered as Curry throws one up over his shoulder against the Bucks.

Not only did he make the shot, but he also got to go to the line after the foul was called. Sometimes all it takes is a bit of luck combined with all of that talent.

No Basket but Still Amazing Sit-Down Layup

Curry didn’t even officially get the points for this one, but it still is worthy of our list.

Just take a look at the video, as he is able to make a basket while basically on the ground. Another case of one of Curry’s wild prayers going in. 

Hesitate and Finish

Curry gets by Kris Dunn of the Chicago Bulls with a hesitation move and then a solid finish for the bucket.

Few players could make a shot on par with this against a defender like Dunn.

All-Star Game Antics

Curry has also had his share of fun in the numerous All-Star games in which he has played in.

Though the defense is much lighter and style of play is different, Curry was still able to bank home this trick shot off the glass that kept the crowd buzzing.
