NBA Fans Mock Jalen Suggs for Failed 'Steph Curry' Impression
During the Orlando Magic’s victory over the Washington Wizards, Jalen Suggs made a memorable mistake that quickly went viral. The Magic, aiming to secure a crucial win against one of the NBA's weakest teams after a slow season start, succeeded with Suggs contributing six points in 19 minutes. Despite the team's success, Suggs' attempt at mimicking Stephen Curry’s popular no-look shot did not go as planned.
Stephen Curry has popularized a move where he shoots the ball while turning around, a trick that several NBA players like LeBron James have tried to emulate. Suggs attempted the same shot during the game, but his shot bounced off the rim and was recovered by Goga Bitadze.
Social Media Reactions
- Fans quickly pointed out Suggs’ failed shot and compared it to a similar miss by Nick Young years ago.
- Comments included:
“Nick Young went on a generational run, but now it’s Jalen Suggs’ turn.”
- Other reactions were:
“It was due… Nick Young GIF, you can rest now,”
and“Nick Young has some competition now.”

The Magic’s hard-fought win over the Wizards was vital as the team needed to improve after a shaky season start. Although Suggs’ score was modest, the victory was a positive outcome for Orlando.
“Jalen Suggs did something in the Orlando Magic’s win over the Washington Wizards that he will surely regret.”
Summary
