Not only does Steph Curry blow the minds of fans watching at home, he even leaves his Warriors teammates stunned.

Injured Warriors center Marquese Chriss joined the NBC Sports Bay Area broadcast for the entire second quarter of Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, and had a perfect reaction to Curry hitting a 3-pointer just before halftime.

After a sideways pass from Kent Bazemore, Curry nailed a triple to give the Warriors a 59-52 lead.

As the ball went in, Chriss could be heard on the broadcast quietly saying "Oh my goodness."

Curry is playing at an MVP level this season and finished the first half of Monday's game with 24 points on 9-of-12 shooting from the field and 5-of-7 from 3-point range.

Chriss sustained a right syndesmosis ankle injury and a fractured fibula during a scrimmage in December and later underwent surgery. The Warriors haven't provided a timetable on when he might return, but The Athletic reported that the 23-year-old will miss the rest of the 2020-21 NBA season.

During Monday's broadcast, Chriss told Bob Fitzgerald and Kelenna Azubuike that he no longer needs crutches or a walking boot.

Curry leaves fans and teammates in disbelief on a nightly basis, and Chriss was no exception Monday.
