VIDEO: Steph Curry is magic, even when he loses his handle

Kyle Terada-USA TODAY Sport

They never had Steph Curry.

The poor, poor Washington Wizards looked like they had stopped a red-hot Curry for a change on Tuesday, with the Golden State Warriors' point guard dribbling into traffic. Faced with multiple Wizards defenders, Curry lost his handle and a turnover appeared imminent.

And then, like the magician he is, Curry turned the loose ball into an assist, firing a ridiculous backhand pass to Marreese Speights for an open 17-footer.

As if that weren't enough, Curry also got to work showing that he's suffering no ill effects from the sore right foot that sidelined him Sunday. Curry flashed some happy feet, putting the moves on Ramon Sessions to clear space for a pull-up triple.

What, exactly, is a defense supposed to do with this guy? 

Nothing. That's the answer.
