Always double check your tweets.
Following the Golden State Warriors' victory Tuesday over the Portland Trail Blazers, Steph Curry sent out a congratulatory tweet to a few of his teammates:
Y'all boys up to something! Big time win tonight. @KlayThompson @hbarnes @Money23Green @andrewbogut @ShaunLivingston @andre @TheBlurBarbo...
— Stephen Curry (@StephenCurry30) May 4, 2016
That was actually the second tweet, because, as Chris Yuscavage of Complex points out, the first one - which was later deleted - included a shout-out to a spam porn account. Curry accidentally used the Twitter handle @brush_4 for Brandon Rush, instead of the correct @BRush_25.
It didn't take long for Curry's followers to notice the mistake.

This all led to the porn account being suspended:
@StephenCurry30 @BRush_25 @ayeshacurry @BabersGreen - Great news!: Apparently my previous tweet caused Twitter to suspend that porn account!
