The Golden State Warriors looked to be dead in the water on Saturday night against the Milwaukee Bucks, but Steph Curry had other plans. The superstar point guard exploded for 11-straight points in the last two minutes of regulation to force overtime, and then put the Bucks away with a dominant showing in the extra period as well.

While Curry was amidst his dominant overtime period, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James shared his reaction with a chef emoji on Twitter:

James and Curry have had some legendary battles over the years, and there has always been a mutual respect between the two superstars. This performance from Curry was truly special, as he saved the Warriors from what would have been their fourth-straight loss. This would have been arguably the worst of them, as they were at home against a Bucks team that was without Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Curry finished the game with 36 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, and a game saving block at the end of regulation. It was a slow start for Curry, but he came up huge when it mattered most. The Warriors looked to be on their way to another loss before Curry took over and saved the game with his play on both ends.

While the Lakers are chasing the Warriors in the standings, LeBron had to show some love to Steph Curry for this legendary performance.
