But in the last game when the Warriors played the Timberwolves, Curry made 6-of-10 three-pointers and finally found a three-pointer. Since November 17, 2021, this is Curry's highest three-point shooting rate in a single game.

From the ongoing downturn to the final recovery, what adjustments has Curry made? Warriors reporter Marcus Thompson interpreted the question after interviewing Curry himself and Warriors assistant coach Bruce Vrazel, revealing that Curry came out of the slump on his own.

Curry knew that the problem with his inaccurate shooting was a lack of strength, and he lacked the strength to jump and kick the ground. The lack of power raises a problem, and Curry becomes pushing the ball out when he makes a shot, which directly affects the accuracy of his ballistics.

But at first, neither Curry nor Vlazer knew why Curry felt inadequate, and after groping for it, Curry finally found the real cause of the lack of strength, and he found that the reason was his feet. Curry used to use the toes of the shot instead of the soles of the feet. Recently, however, when Curry jumped on the ground with his toes, he didn't get as much force feedback as the soles of his feet. In the following training, Curry began to use more power with the soles of his feet, and the results were very good, and his shooting returned to normal.

Judging from Curry's shooting highlights against the Timberwolves and the previous training video, Curry did use the foot force shooting action, and the adjustment of this technical detail helped him out of the slump, and then it depends on whether Curry can maintain it.
