Chicago Sky rookie Kamilla Kardoso demonstrated her accuracy after an impressive half-court shot in a competition with her teammates that has become a regular activity during a WNBA pre-game warm-up.
Kamilla couldn’t contain her excitement after her incredible basket, which she immediately celebrated in the trademark “Night, Night” style of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry.Cardoso, the former South Carolina star was selected by the Chicago Sky with the No. 3 pick in this year’s draft. He averaged 9.1 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 blocks in 22 games.

When did it start with the “night, night”?

Curry explained that he originally displayed this gesture in one of his first-round playoff games against the Denver Nuggets:”Down the stretch in the fourth quarter against the Nuggets I was saying to myself, ‘Put them to sleep. Put them to sleep.’ I don’t even know where it came from. It literally wasn’t a thought,” Steph Curry explained to Boardroom’s Nick DePaula.”Fast forward to Memphis (Grizzlies), Dallas (Mavericks) and then Boston (Celtics), and it took on a life of its own,” Curry said. “I was just having fun. You talk about having kids. You know how important bedtime routines are. It’s the final sign of a job well done that day. Pretty special.”

But also after Curry, this celebration has been seen in almost every sport, such as when WNBA star Sabrina Ionescu hit a game-winning shot or Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Andrew McCutchen used it when he came to the plate after connecting on a home run and it went to the next level when a young man lay down on the ground and did his Curry-approved celebration there.

However, the “Night, Night” move is officially considered Curry-branded.The 1.88-meter Brazilian is a proven winner who is just scratching her potential. She is already a solid defender who knows how to take advantage of her wingspan and length in the post. A season or two against the best players in women’s basketball will only improve her.
