We all know that Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors is a terrific basketball player and perhaps the greatest shooter of all time.
He blows us away on the court again and again throughout the season.
Still, most of us don’t see the sort of work that goes into such excellence.
TheWarriorsTalk shared a video of Curry performing what is called the “full-court star” drill with coach Brandon Payne.
In this drill, Curry runs across the court, taking three-pointers from just about every corner.
He has to make 8 out of 10 shots under 55 seconds in order to pass.
Rare glimpse of Stephen Curry’s “full-court star” drill with coach Brandon Payne. In this highly difficult drill Steph runs full court sprints to each spot behind the arc.

Others said that the footage is a great reminder of just how in shape and fit Curry really is.
People for real don’t understand how fit this dude is. Gotta be the fittest in the league for sure

And there were others who commended him for not just hunching over when the drill was done, another testament to his physicality.
Most impressive part is his actions (or non actions) after he’s done the drill.
Doesn’t hunch over or stop and catch his breath.

If the video wasn’t enough, TheWarriorsTalk impressed fans even more with some extra information: this drill was done at the end of Curry’s workout.
btw, this was at the END of his workout.

Curry is known as a lights-out shooter who can sink incredible shots from anywhere on the court.
There is a reason for that; it’s not just because of pure luck.
He is in the gym every day performing drills just like this so that he can help his Warriors in the new season.
Even though he sometimes makes it look easy, Curry works very hard.
