Steph Curry is offering a response after Luka Doncic decided to steal his swag during Game 3.
During Sunday’s Western Conference Finals battle against Curry’s Golden State Warriors, the Dallas Mavericks star Doncic hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer to end the first quarter. He celebrated by hitting Curry’s famous move, the shimmy.

While Doncic had his moment, the Warriors still went on to win the game 109-100 to take a 3-0 lead in the series. On Monday, Curry responded to Doncic using his own move against him.
“It was phenomenal, A-plus,” he said of Doncic’s shimmy, per NBC Sports Bay Area. “He could have did it a little longer though. That’s my only critique. Gotta hold it.”
Curry has trolled many an opponent over the years with his shimmy move, but at least he is a good sport whenever they give him that same energy right back. A few postseasons ago, Curry was also on the receiving end of an even more disrespectful shimmy.
