Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry delivered another highlight-reel moment against the Los Angeles Lakers, leaving Luka Doncic on the floor after a sharp move. But teammate De'Anthony Melton had a particularly amusing reaction to the play, admitting he completely missed what happened.

Melton was asked about Curry's ankle-breaker after the game. His response suggested that even players sharing the court with the superstar can be caught off guard by his ball-handling skills.

“Next thing you know, I look back and dude on the floor,” Melton said in a video shared on X.

The Warriors guard admitted he had no idea how Doncic ended up on the hardwood. He was already planning to watch the highlight again to understand exactly what Curry did.

“I don't know what happened; I'm definitely gonna rewatch that back and see what happened,” Melton added.

The sequence quickly became another example of Curry's ability to create separation against defenders. His combination of quick changes in direction, precise footwork, and unpredictable movement has made him difficult to guard throughout his career.

For Melton, the moment was especially entertaining because he witnessed the aftermath without catching the move itself.

The reaction also highlighted the excitement Curry can generate among his own teammates. Even experienced NBA players can appreciate the unexpected moments he produces during games.

While the ankle-breaker drew attention online, it also reflected Curry's continued influence on Golden State's offense. His ability to draw defensive attention and create space remains a central part of the Warriors' attack.

Melton's comments added a humorous perspective to the viral play, with one Warriors player now eager to see the replay everyone else was already discussing.
