NBA Fans Mock Jalen Suggs for Failed 'Steph Curry' Impression
Jalen Suggs found himself at the center of online jokes after a misfire during the Orlando Magic’s recent win over the Washington Wizards. Though the Magic needed the win badly following a sluggish start to their season, Suggs’ attempt at mimicking Stephen Curry’s signature no-look shot missed the mark.
Suggs scored six points in 19 minutes, contributing to the team's victory, but his viral mistake overshadowed his performance. He tried to replicate Curry’s famous no-look shot, where the shooter turns away just as the ball leaves their hand—a move popularized by Curry in recent years and attempted by other stars like LeBron James.
During the game, Suggs’ shot bounced off the rim, and the rebound was grabbed by Goga Bitadze, turning the play into an unsuccessful highlight. This failure drew immediate comparisons to a similar blunder by Nick Young years ago.
Fan Reactions and Comparisons
“Nick Young went on a generational run, but now it’s Jalen Suggs’ turn.”
“It was due… Nick Young GIF, you can rest now.”
“Nick Young has some competition now.”
Fans humorously suggested that Suggs had joined Young in the infamous club of failed no-look shots, highlighting the rarity and difficulty of the move.
Context of the Attempt
The Orlando Magic faced one of the NBA’s weakest teams, the Washington Wizards, making the game a key opportunity to improve their record. Despite Suggs’ low scoring output, the team secured a needed win, though Suggs’ missed shot remains a talking point.
Author’s Summary
Jalen Suggs' attempt at Steph Curry's iconic no-look shot during a crucial Magic win backfired, leading to viral mockery comparing him to past NBA misses.
