There is not too much Stephen Curry cannot do on a basketball court.
However, as he gears up for the Olympics, the four-time NBA champion has admitted that one of basketball's simplest-looking tasks is beyond him.

As part of preparations for the United States men’s basketball team Olympic campaign, Curry has linked up with his superstar teammates in Las Vegas.
The 36-year-old will make his Olympic debut later this month along LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Boston Celtics title winning duo Jrue Holliday and Jayson Tatum.
Having been through their early practice sessions, Curry and his teammates were taking part in media duties.
Such is the way these days, it presented the content teams with a chance for some fun and games with the players.

All 12 members of the squad were asked if they could spin the ball on their finger.
Some of the sport’s most iconic images have featured legendary names doing exactly that, and while there were a few surprise struggles, most players were able to achieve the feat.
However one of the NBA's finest ball handlers, and certainly it's greatest ever shooter - was left a picture of frustration.
Curry who has won four NBA championships with the Golden State Warriors, admitted his struggles and as the camera pans away he is seen bouncing the ball into the ground and wondering what might have been.

Curry was not alone however, as two of the biggest names in the NBA - James and Joel Embiid - had struggles of their own with a task that looks simple but is clearly a lot trickier than many of us would believe.
Durant was one of the players able to showcase his skills, and Boston star Holiday had little in trouble in letting the ball spin for an age on his index finger.

Curry will line up alongside his USA teammates in Paris later in July when the high profile men's Olympic competition gets underway.
Coached by Steve Kerr, an all-star team of NBA superstars will go in search of a fifth successive gold medal.
In fact since 1992, the US have only failed to take gold once and that was in 2004 in Athens when they had to settle for bronze.
Brilliant US teams of the past have included Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Charles Barkley and Kevin Garnett and the class of 2024 have been compared to the famous 'Dream Team' of 1992.
However basketball is now a truly global game, with many of the NBA's superstars also set to take to the courts to represent their country in Paris, another gold for Kerr, Curry and co. will be a tough task.
The US were beaten by Germany in last year's FIBA World Cup semi-finals and the likes of Giannis Antetokounmpo (Greece), Nikola Jokic (Serbia) and last year's rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama (France) will all have Olympic dreams of their own.
