Steph Curry gone missing memes flood internet during Game 3
Stephen Curry disappeared for more than two full quarters during a Game 3 loss in the NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the internet did not let him off the hook for the curious performance.
Curry scored Golden State’s first points of the game with a 3-pointer a minute and a half into the contest. He did not score again until 6:22 left in the third quarter. While Curry disappeared for 28 minutes of the game, the internet ran with memes of him on a milk carton and lost in a crowd like Waldo.

Perhaps the story on the game was written way too early as Curry came back with a strong finish. After going 1-for-6 for just three points in the first half, Curry scored 24 in the second half on 9-for-14 shooting, including 6-of-9 from long range. Never count out an MVP too early, even if his team did come up short.
