Steph Curry was hilariously hyped after nailing a pregame trick shot

One sure sign that Steph Curry is about to have a good game is if he nails a pregame trick shot and celebrates like he just won his fifth NBA Championship.

Good news for Golden State Warriors fans, Curry did just that ahead of Sunday’s game against the Sacramento Kings. While the Warriors may gone a tepid 5-7 to start the 2022-23 NBA season, Curry’s not lost a step so far this year.

Coming off a 40-point performance the game before, Curry was riding high ahead of Sunday’s pregame warmups. Before warmups ended, Curry took a leaping trick shot — lobbing the ball into the air — that landed perfectly in the basket, capping off the moment with an incredible celebration with his teammates.

And that enthusiasm rolled right into the first quarter against the Kings, where Curry put up 13 points in another dominant performance in the making.

Just Steph Curry things!
