Were Steph Curry and Kyrie Irving Mocking Lebron?
Many people attended Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes’s wedding recently, and while everyone was having a great time, a video of several NBA players dancing has drawn speculation. In the video, two people stand out from amongst the crowd: none other than Steph Curry and Kyrie Irving. The unique dance moves led people to ask if Steph Curry was mocking Lebron James and if Kyrie Irving, who can be seen in the video egging Curry on, was part of the fun.
Curry’s dance moves could have been inspired by Lebron’s previous Instagram post of him working out, which is what Curry seems to be mocking.

This conclusion is partly due to the rivalry that has brewed between Golden State and Cleveland. But what is also interesting is the fact that Kyrie can be seen goofing around in the video, making many fans wonder if he is indeed looking to part ways with Cleveland and James. This all comes on the heels of Kyrie reportedly wanting to be traded and be the centerpiece of his own team.
Check out some of the buzz that the aforementioned video drew on social media:

I’m cool w/ all the subliminal stuff from NBA guys, but we gotta stop with the whole “humble” rep Steph has. He partakes in the subliminals

I’d say it’d be tough for Kyrie to defend that video but it’s Kyrie so trouble defending goes without saying
