Facepalms from Carmelo Anthony Steph Curry on the back lineCarmelo Anthony tries to think of a new way to protect Stephen Curry, but it doesn’t work.

When the Golden State Warriors b𝔢at the New York Knicks 116–95 on Monday, February 1 (Sunday, January 31 in the US), Carmelo Anthony tried to defend Stephen Curry, who was named NBA MVP last year. He did so in a clever way.

The NBA’s leading scorer, Stephen Curry, was making a move on the outside early in the fourth quarter.

Anthony put his hand on Curry’s head like a child, but Curry kept moving.However, Anthony was called for a foul, and Curry made a long one-handed shot that did not count.

Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN says Curry arrived with a scratch. Curry had a quiet night with only 13 points and didn’t play for most of the fourth.
