Video game animators spot on with Stephen Curry free throw-mouthguard routine, earn praise from NBA MVP himself

VIDEO game animators were spot on in presenting Stephen Curry’s free throw routine, complete with the mouth guard hanging on his teeth, earning praise from the NBA Most Valuable Player himself.

The Warriors star posted the NBA 2K16 animation on Instagram on Friday (Saturday, Manila time), saying it was “So Nice!”

Now there’s no preview of the through-the-legs-behind-the-back move, but Curry says more can be expected from 2K soon.

From the NBA MVP himself

Exclusive! Here’s the first time you can see @2k #NBA2K16 gameplay footage. After going through body/face scan and motion capture, watch my FT routine w/ my signature mouth guard. So nice! #flickofdawrist #shoegame #BeTheStory More gameplay coming on Monday from 2K in “Beyond the Shadows”
