NBA Fans Mock Jalen Suggs for Failed 'Steph Curry' Impression
During the Orlando Magic’s victory over the Washington Wizards, Jalen Suggs made a viral blunder that drew widespread mockery. Although the Magic secured a crucial win after a slow season start, Suggs, who scored six points in 19 minutes, mishandled a no-look shot attempt popularized by Stephen Curry.
Suggs' No-Look Shot Attempt Goes Wrong
Stephen Curry is known for his no-look shots, where he turns away just as he releases the ball, a move many NBA stars, including LeBron James, have attempted. Suggs tried to replicate this during the game, but the ball bounced off the rim and was grabbed by Goga Bitadze, failing spectacularly.
Social Media Reaction
- NBA fans quickly compared Suggs’ miss to a similar failed attempt by Nick Young.
- 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.”
Despite the personal mistake, the Magic's win remains a positive result for the team early in the season.

Jalen Suggs’ attempt to mimic Stephen Curry’s signature no-look shot backfired, drawing NBA fans’ playful ridicule but not hindering the Orlando Magic’s crucial victory.
