Steph Curry had a funny reaction to throwing down a rare dunk during a game.

Curry jammed during the first quarter of the Golden State Warriors’ game against the Sacramento Kings on Thursday. After throwing down along the baseline, Curry put his arms up by his face and acted surprised.

That seemed to be an imitation of this online meme:

What made the dunk so shocking? It was Curry’s first of the season and first at home in nearly two years.
