NBA Fans Mock Jalen Suggs for Failed Stephen Curry Impression
During the Orlando Magic's recent win over the Washington Wizards, Jalen Suggs made a play he is likely to regret. Despite the Magic needing a win against one of the league's weaker teams and Suggs contributing only six points in 19 minutes, the point guard became the focus of social media after a notable blunder.
Stephen Curry has popularized no-look shots, where the player turns away just as the ball leaves their hand. While several NBA stars, including LeBron James, have tried to mimic this move, Suggs' attempt fell short. His no-look shot bounced off the rim and was collected by Goga Bitadze, leading to widespread mockery among fans.
Comparisons to Nick Young
Fans drew parallels between Suggs' failure and a similar mishap by Nick Young years ago. 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.”
Context of the Game
- Orlando Magic secured a much-needed win after a slow season start.
- Suggs played 19 minutes, scoring six points.
- The no-look shot attempt became the viral moment of the game.
Despite the team's victory, Suggs' failed mimicry of Curry's signature move overshadowed his performance.
Summary
Jalen Suggs’ unsuccessful imitation of Stephen Curry's no-look shot during a crucial Orlando Magic game drew widespread criticism and comparisons to Nick Young’s similar past failure.
