WWE Superstar The Miz Misses Out on a Stephen Curry Moment by Seconds in NBA All-Star Celebrity Game

Famous personalities of particular sports have been known to excel in sports that are not in their expertise. This displays their level of athletic capability and the alternate careers they might have had. Fans are constantly on the lookout for such rare instances. WWE superstar The Miz almost had a Stephen Curry moment but came up agonizingly short.

Celebrity All-Star games are frequently organized across all the major sports. And basketball is no different, with the NBA All-star 2023 celebrity game. The two teams were captained by two well-known NBA personalities. Utah Jazz owner Ryan Smith’s side was up against former Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade’s ensemble. The match-up was intense and was not decided until the last second. And The Miz almost made a telling contribution only to just miss out.

The Miz almost comes up with an insane moment in the match

Wade’s side was leading the contest 81-78 in the dying embers of the game. However, The Miz came up with an outrageous three-pointer from the center line. The wrestler’s teammates were in raptures, thinking the game was tied, but they were sadly denied. The ball was still in the hands of the former Marine actor when the buzzer went off. Hence, his shot was not counted and as a result, the match was won by the NBA legend’s side.

The former Intercontinental champion even put up a post about the incident on his Instagram. The caption for the post read, “All about the moments #NBAAllStar“.

The match featured celebrities from all walks of life. Former NFL players, a YouTuber, and even a comedian were all part of the match. The dramatic moment at the last stages of the contest certainly spiced it up even more.

Where do the WWE superstar’s loyalties lie in NBA?

The ‘A-Lister’ has never been shy of showing his affection for the NBA side Cleveland Cavaliers. He has spent a considerable amount of his time in the region, as he is an Ohio native.

The heroic shot from ‘The Miz’ has highlighted his lesser-known talents in basketball. He came awfully close to creating a moment like the NBA icon Stephen Curry moment. The Golden State Warriors star has been synonymous with last-second heroics and The Miz nearly emulated him.

Back in the squared circle, the performer was punished by Seth Rollins this past week on RAW. The Architect’s unconventional boots hogged much of the limelight during the night. He appeared on ‘Miz TV’ and delivered a trademark curb stomp to the show’s host later.
