It was a very important game on Tuesday night for the Western Conference playoff picture. Stephen Curry and Luka Dončić played each other.
On the other hand, before the exciting game between the Golden State Warriors and the Dallas Mavericks, the two celebrities played a friendly game from the half-court line. As Curry and Dončić warmed up for their shots, cameras caught them sharing half-court shots with smiles on their faces. A miss from each player seemed to end the game when Curry hit the ball hard.
Even though the basket was made, Dončić seemed to be making fun of the shot by pointing to the floor as if to say that Curry had his toes on the edge of the basket.

Both Curry and Dončić are great athletes, but they are also two of the best performers in the NBA right now. This is true both during games and before them. Both players have made it a habit to please fans before games by showing off their shooting skills.
Dončić stole the show at the Toyota Center on Sunday before a game against the Houston Rockets by making a shot that went off the screen. Fans were amazed even when they were on the road.
Curry is also very good at trick shots. Earlier this year, he shocked the home crowd at the Chase Center with a mind-blowing shot from the tunnel that was more than full court.
Curry and Dončić had a tough match on Tuesday night, but Curry won this time.
The Warriors and Mavericks are in a crazy race to make the playoffs.
After the game at half-court, Curry and Dončić had everything to play for on the court.
Curry and Dončić laughed a lot before Tuesday night’s game, but there was no time for jokes once the game started because the West playoff race is so close.
Curry and the Warriors are in tenth place in the Western Conference right now, which means they have the last spot in the play-in game. Since 2012, Golden State has only missed the playoffs twice. This year, they will have to win their way through the play-in game unless there is a huge change at the end of the season.
At the same time, Dončić and the Mavericks are in fifth place in the West, just 1.5 games above the play-in tournament’s danger zone. There are only a few games left in the season, so every basket is important. Maybe even the ones before the game.
