Jordan Bell did his best Zaza Pachulia impression, and even got some love from the man himself.
With the shot clock winding down late in the third quarter of a 105-95 win over the Milwaukee Bucks, Bell ran a give-and-go with Warriors guard Stephen Curry.
That sentence, however, undersells Bell's pass just a bit.

Yes, Bell pulled a Pachulia, going between-the-legs when he returned the ball to Curry. The two-time MVP drained his ensuing 3-point shot, and surely gave Warriors fans a blast from the (very recent past).

Pachulia watched Bell's pass from the Motor City, where he now plays for the Detroit Pistons. The two-time champion posted his approval on his Instagram story.

Bell finished the game with four points, three rebounds, and two blocks, but his only assist of the night is going to be what he remembers most.
