On Monday night, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Golden State Warriors 104-101 to take a decisive 3-1 series lead. While Golden State's hopes of another NBA championship run are diminishing, they can be counted out thanks to one player.

Stephen Curry had trouble with his outside shot last night but still found a way to garner his third career playoff triple-double. Luckily for fans, Curry gave sneakerheads something to chew on with his new shoes.

Throughout this season, Curry has celebrated ten years with Under Armour. In addition to launching Curry's tenth signature sneaker, Under Armour and Curry Brand have cooked up several exciting colorways of upgraded retro models.

Last night, Curry debuted the Curry 2 Low FloTro in an unreleased 'Mouthguard' colorway that draws inspiration from his notable piece of equipment. Below is what fans need to know about the kicks.

The Curry 2 Low FloTro is an upgraded version of Curry's second signature sneaker with Under Armour. This time, the performance model features a lightweight, seamless upper for incredible fit and comfort.

The new UA Flow technology provides the cushioning and outsole, which sheds unnecessary weight and keeps athletes running longer on the court. Lastly, the molded heel for enhanced heel lockdown and stability.

While fans anxiously await to see if the blue and white 'Mouthguard' colorway releases, there are other options. The Curry 2 Low FloTro is currently available in multiple colorways for $150 on the Curry Brand website.

If watching Curry's career has taught us anything, it is never to count out the greatest three-point shooter of all time. The Warriors host the Lakers in a must-win Game 5 on Wednesday night. It's safe to expect another stellar performance and eye-catching sneakers from Curry.
