Golden State Warriors superstar Steph Curry was up to his usual antics in the lead-up to Friday's Game 6 clash against the Houston Rockets. This included his usual warmup routine before the contest, which involved made shot after made shot for the two-time NBA MVP.

Curry looked so good in his warmups that the NBA just had to take notice. The league posted a one-minute video montage of Curry's pregame routine on the court, and it used a single word to express how impressed it was with the 11-time All-Star.

"One word to describe Steph's warmup: effortless " the NBA posted on X.

The Rockets, however, are not going down without a fight.
