For a brief moment during Monday night's Warriors game against the Lakers, star Stephen Curry seemed a little less than superhuman, after slipping while attempting to score. To make matters worse, when he got the ball back courtesy of teammate Andre Iguodala, he airballed a 3-pointer.

What was going on?

On Tuesday, during an appearance on "The Late Late Show with James Corden," he tried to explain:

"See what happened was the LA Kings had a game right before us and they must not have put the floor back on top of the ice all the way because there was a little wet spot and I slipped. In my head I knew I was about to do something crazy, 360 dunk I've never done in my life. And it didn't happen," Curry said.

OK, but what about that airball?
