One of the best shooters in the history Steph Curry was delighted by Nemanja Bjelica's game.
- I didn't know he could pass the ball so well, a-ha-ha. He has the freedom to play that way, especially when he is in position number five. He is a danger in the shot, he knows how to dribble if he does not have an open situation. "Beli" can read the defense well, he can find open players, he knows how to choose. There will be room for him if we do what we are supposed to do. I love when there is a lot of space, it was cool to see. He played a great role in the last quarter and maintained his momentum. It was great to watch - Curry said.

The Serbian ace scored 15 points and caught 11 rebounds in 26 minutes on the field, with four assists.
Bjelica picked up compliments ever since the "media day", and ever since this game in which he essentially brought victory to his team against the Los Angeles Lakers, things got even better for "Beli".
In the strongest league, he previously played for Minnesota, Sacramento and Miami, and after the game against the Los Angeles Lakers, he disproved many critics.
