It's not everyday stuff to witness an NBA superstar offering commentary on European basketball leagues.

Recently, Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry stumbled upon a captivating play from the Greek Basket League while browsing an Instagram page and felt driven to share his insights.

The play was from a game between PAOK and Peristeri, which was posted by the AllDayAthletes page. It showcased three screens between the guard and the center that ended up in Peristeri's Marcus Denmon's collaboration with Ian Hummer, who received a beautiful bounce pass and completed the play with a strong left-handed dunk over the opponent.

The Instagram page posed the question, "How do you even guard this?"

And to everyone's surprise, Curry stepped in to provide his perspective. He identified PAOK's Jordan Sibert, wearing jersey number 18, as the primary problem.

"No. 18 is the problem. Stay high over the flare. Hardest pass to make is the one over the top to the corner. Everybody else can stay home. Nice action though. Only works one time before they figure out," Curry wrote of Vassilis Spanoulis' action.

Four-time NBA champion didn't stop there. He responded to AllDayAthletes' comments and reiterated his words by stating that a well-prepared scouting report could effectively neutralize this play.

"Repeat. You could run it once but that's getting shut down the rest of the game/season."
