Steph Curry's high kicks

While one could look at last night's 2017 NBA Finals Game 1 as nothing more than a warm-up for the Cavs, you can't front on the 66 combined points from Kevin Durant and Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors. Curry's been a beast for a minute, and last night, he got mad excited, to the point where he was high-kicking after sinking a three.

In a similar fashion to LeBron James' mean mug from the same game, High-Kickin' Curry's antics have spread like wildfire, with Twitter turning those steps into a proper meme.

Even some football players got into the mix after noticing how perfectly Curry resembled an NFL kicker.

The question is: how often will Curry be letting these high kicks fly during this year's NBA Finals? We'll find out this Sunday during Game 2.
