NBA Fans Mock Jalen Suggs for Failed Steph Curry Impression
During the Orlando Magic’s win over the Washington Wizards, Jalen Suggs made a memorable mistake that quickly went viral. Despite the Magic’s much-needed victory against one of the league's weaker teams, Suggs' attempt at emulating Stephen Curry’s famous no-look shot fell flat.
Suggs' No-Look Shot Attempt
Suggs, who scored six points in 19 minutes, tried to mimic Curry’s signature move where the shooter turns away immediately after releasing the ball. Unfortunately, the shot bounced off the rim and was grabbed by Goga Bitadze, drawing widespread attention online.
Social Media Reactions
NBA fans were quick to mock Suggs, comparing his miss to a similar failed attempt by Nick Young years earlier. Comments included:
“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.”
This moment highlights how difficult it is to pull off Curry’s trademark shot, even for talented NBA players.
