James Wiseman has been in awe of Steph Curry's greatness early on in his Warriors career. The rookie center compared Curry's silky shooting to a video game, and he's not the only new Warriors to be in awe of the two-time NBA MVP.

“He’s an anomaly,” Oubre Jr. said. “There's nobody else in the game of basketball right now like that ... he shoots the ball and you automatically just figure it’s going in. When he misses, you’re kind of surprised. He’s just, he's a different talent.”

Curry played in just five games last season due to a broken left hand. After an extended offseason, the three-time NBA champion has been in midseason form during the three preseason games, showing he's ready to put the Warriors back on the NBA map.

The NBA wasn't the same without Curry torching the nets from deep on a nightly basis. But the "anomaly" is back and ready to prove that the Warriors' dynasty is very much alive and well.
