Steph Curry is not only a great three-point shooter, he can unleash a nasty slam dunk.

Bayless, co-host of the Worldwide Leader’s “First Take,’’ offered up a textbook backhanded compliment to the Golden State Warriors’ point guard and was summarily dismissed.

If this happened on All-Star weekend, the dunk contest judges would have shown Steph 10s across the board.
