“Klay Thompson really out there hitting the Stephen Curry shimmy”: NBA Twitter reacts as the Warriors guard does his best Chef Curry impersonation during Game 5 vs Mavs

After hitting a big three-pointer in the second quarter, Klay Thompson celebrated with the Stephen Curry shimmy.

After sustaining their first loss of this Western Conference Finals at the American Airlines Center, Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors started Game 5 with a vengeance. So far, the first half has been all about Klay Thompson.

The Splash Brother has recorded 19 points on 63.6% from the field and 62.5% from beyond the arc, with Steve Kerr’s boys having a solid 69-52 lead entering halftime.

After knocking his 4th three-pointer of the half, Klay even took a leaf out of Steph’s book as he had his own version of the famous shimmy celebration.
