Steph Curry has been locked in throughout this postseason, averaging 29 points and five 3-pointers per game for the Warriors, and Saturday’s practice was no exception for the Golden State guard.

Curry — arguably the best outside shooter in NBA history — casually made a one-handed, over-the-head, halfcourt shot after practice, then walked off like it was no big deal.

Curry, the NBA Most Valuable Player, will lead the Warriors against four-time NBA MVP LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday in Game 1 of the NBA Finals at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif.
