Stephen Curry might be the greatest shooter in NBA history, but he isn't that good.

On Sunday, a video went viral showing the Golden State Warriors star sinking five straight full-court heaves at the team's practice facility.

There's just one problem. The Associated Press' Janie McCauley confirmed the video is fake.

That raises an obvious question: Were any of Curry's 3,232 made three-pointers real? How deep does the conspiracy go?

Opposing teams have grown accustomed to paying attention to Curry as soon as he crosses half court, such is his shooting range. Luckily they don't have to start crowding him immediately after he catches an inbound pass.

The Elon Musk Act aims to ban ‘special government employees’ from having federal contracts
U.S. Democratic Representative Mark Pocan plans to introduce a bill designed to ban “special government employees” like Elon Musk from having federal contracts so they can’t steer spending toward their own self-interest. The proposed bill is called the ELON MUSK Act, which stands for Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy. “No government employee, ‘special’ or not, should have any financial interest in who the government does business with,” Pocan, the House Democrat from Wisconsin, said in a statement.
