“I missed a free throw, man. I was pissed. KD (Kevin Durant) missed two down there, too, so that sh*t might work”. Devin Booker realized the potential the Intuit Dome’s new feature holds during a Suns-Clippers matchup earlier this year. A part of Steve Ballmer’s new $2 billion arena, the ‘Wall’ is a seating area located right behind a basket, housing 51 uninterrupted rows that house 18,000 fans. The catch: only a ‘Chuckmark-certified fan’ of the Clippers can get a seat at the ‘Wall.’

Anyone cheering or even wearing the gear of the visiting team is off-limits. A rival player may distract themselves while attempting to make a shot. Realizing the incredible potential, Stephen Curry wanted to get a first-hand look at his ‘opponent’ as well.

Earlier today, before the matchup between the Warriors and the Clippers, cameras captured the All-Time Three-Point Leader climbing up and down the ‘Wall’. To ease any concerns about your knee injury, nothing beats the exercise of running up and down 51 rows of seats, like the towering stands of Camp Nou. Even the fans seemed to have realized this.

How did fans react to Stephen Curry warming up at the ‘Wall’?

One social media user wrote, “Man is about to crazy tonight.” Well, only time will tell! Stephen Curry certainly goes the extra mile with pre-game warm-up sessions. According to the player himself, his pre-game sprints are not just a warm-up. They are a gateway to reaching his ‘game mode.’

Curry also puts on a show for the early arrivals with his three-point shooting practice. As Steve Kerr described, “I don’t know of anybody else who has ever drawn that type of attention for pregame warmups.” This time, Curry got the attention with his climb, ensuring he was physically ready to take on the 7-7 LA Clippers at their home base.

One social media user watched the clip and was taken aback. After all, wasn’t this the same Stephen Curry whose availability was questionable due to a knee ailment? This reasoning may have compelled him to write “so his knee is fine… I supposed”.

In the Injury Report released yesterday, the medical team diagnosed the 36-year-old Warriors star with left knee bursitis. This comes right after Curry had missed 3 games due to an ankle ailment he sustained during the Warriors’ first home game of the ongoing regular season. In describing his ankle, the player had stated, “I’ve been through plenty of those episodes. I know whether it’s something I can play on or not.” Therefore, if his left knee bursitis troubled him to play, he certainly wouldn’t be climbing up and down the ‘Wall.’

Another individual highlighted her surprise over Stephen Curry being up and well. Similarly to the above-mentioned comment, the user also stated “I thought he questionable tonight with Knee problem”. According to a report by Cleveland Clinic, prepatellar bursitis can take as much as a few weeks for players to recover. For Curry, however, it only took a couple of days! Therefore, can we blame the fans for being surprised?

One individual saw the clip and assured himself of the player’s availability. He stated, “Knee is good he will play tonight”.

With a 10-2 win record, the Warriors currently occupy the highest rank on the Western Conference points chart. Only the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics currently hold a 15-0 and 11-3 win stat, unmatched by the franchise’s record. Therefore, the Warriors could have risked a loss by allowing Stephen Curry some additional rest. However, given how the franchise couldn’t even make the Play-In series the previous season, no one would want to take any unwanted risks.

For an average person, climbing the ‘Wall’ to find their seats would be an effort enough. Curry’s ability to go up and down while doctors diagnosed him with an ailment a few days ago is nothing short of admirable. As a result, one fan commended the player on his workout by writing “before the game is crazy”. The All-Time Three-Point Leader cannot even get tired during clutch time, as seen during the recent Warriors-Mavericks game. Therefore, no one should presumably question whether he will be good at playing after an extensive pre-game workout.

Overall, positive reactions flooded Stephen Curry, with many expressing surprise over his quick recovery. The ‘Wall’ of the Intuit Dome managed to stump Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and many others. Whether it will affect Curry too remains to be seen.
