With just under one minute remaining in Game 3 of this year’s NBA Finals, Warriors forward Kevin Durant grabbed a defensive rebound, dribbled to the other end of the floor, and buried one of the defining shots of his career over Cavaliers superstar LeBron James.
After watching Durant’s shot go in, his teammate, Stephen Curry, decided to make what some are calling an obscene gesture. In the following video clip, it appears as though Curry was “going number two” on the Cavs’ home court.
As most basketball fans know, the Warriors, now holding a 3-0 series lead, went on to win Game 3 in hard-fought fashion, 118-103. Now, facing elimination, the Cavs will have to fight with their backs against the wall.
Curry’s disrespectful act did not go unnoticed. According to Sam Amico, several Cavs players were quite agitated by his behavior.

Game 4 is set to tip at 9:00 p.m. tonight inside Quicken Loans Arena, with ABC having live broadcast coverage. Everyone will just have to wait and see if the Cavs can avenge their pride after Curry’s on-court shenanigans.
