Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry never forgets to have a little fun while on the road. Arguably the best three-point shooter to ever play in the league, Curry has often demonstrated his football skills on camera. The Warriors — currently in Dallas —uploaded a video of Curry shooting a three-pointer at the American Airlines Center, but not before he showcases his just as impressive football skills.

Are Steph Curry basketball skills and football skills both impressive?

"Don't sleep on Stephen Curry's soccer skills," the Warriors write in their tweet, not forgetting to add the All-Star hashtag. Curry is seen waiting for the ball at the sideline, before bracing himself and kicking it across the court. He receives the ball with his back turned away, only to take another turn and make a corner three-pointer.

This is also not the first time Curry has shown his football skills during practice. In 2017, Curry attended a Chelsea game at Stamford Bridge. The three-time NBA champion had made a penalty kick and had shared the video on social media himself. "I'm nice with the right foot though," Curry wrote, thanking Chelsea for having him. 

In another 2018 practice session, Curry is seen playing football — this time with Steve Nash. In a similar fashion as the recent video, Curry plays a little football before making the basket. Back then, Nash worked as the Warriors' Part-Time Player Development Consultant.

He is also now the third player after Ray Allen and Reggie Miller to reach the 2,500 three-pointer mark.
