With the Golden State Warriors getting a weekend off before a matchup with defending champion Los Angeles Lakers came Monday, Steph Curry was tuned in for the Portland Trail Blazers tilt against the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday night.
After Carmelo Anthony drilled a step-back jumper upside down Solomon Hill, the most valuable player played twice into social media.
Before dismissing his design, Anthony created a space with a flower of quiet pivots. Curry praised the slow footwork of the old score. On Twitter, the Warriors point guard said he looked at the fragment of Anthony’s bucket 20 times.

Anthony finished the tournament with 11 points on a 4-of-11 shooting from the field. At the Blazers’ 112-106 victory over Trae
Young and the Hawks, Anthony stole, rebound and block in 29 minutes.
In the 2020-21 season, the 17-year-old veteran gets an average of 12 points on 39.8% from the field with 3.1 rebounds and 1.2 assists per contest. March 3 is the next time Anthony and the Blazers travel to the Chase Center.
