Steph Curry’s shimmy dance has quickly turned into his signature celebration after he laces a clutch 3-pointer through the net. Yet, in Game 5 of the Western Conference finals against the Dallas Mavericks, it wasn’t Curry shimmying; it was one of his teammates on the Golden State Warriors.
With the Warriors surging, Klay Thompson connected on a 3-pointer that set the Chase Center crowd into a frenzy. Following his triple to give Golden State a 13-point lead in the second quarter, Thompson broke out Curry’s shimmy. Thompson’s shimmy 3-pointer was his fourth triple of the first half against the Mavs.
Thompson finished the first half with 19 points on 7-of-11 shooting from the field with five triples.
