"I pull that out, because I like it and it makes me laugh and it makes me happy."

Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes tied the knot this passed weekend, and plenty of NBA stars were in attendance including his former teammate, Stephen Curry, and Kyrie Irving. 

We know they were there because video footage of Steph doing the #LeBronChallenge in his suit, while Kyrie looked on laughing, has been going viral.

Of course, because Kyrie was nearby when this #LeBronChallenge went down, it added fuel to the Kyrie vs Cavs beef as fans speculated he and Curry were making fun of 'Bron's workout videos.

However, Curry says he is a huge fan of the moves LeBron put on display while listening to Tee Grizzley's "First Day Out," and watches the video "twice a day."

Steph also clarified that neither he or Kyrie were making fun of LeBron.

Per The Athletic,

“I’ve been watching that video twice a day since it happened because its my favorite video in the entire world,” Curry said. “He made a song popular by making a video. And that lives. So now every time I hear that song, that’s all I think about. And I’ve been doing that dance because of him, at my house, at dinner. When something good happens, I pull that out, because I like it and it makes me laugh and it makes me happy. Not making fun of him.”

“One thousand percent,” Curry said. “That was just a casualty of the moment because me and him were hanging out all night. Then that song came on and I was having a good time. Obviously, that’s a separate side story to their relationship, but neither one of us was trying to clown him.”
