Jimmy Butler’s Gesture for Steph Curry Goes Viral on Monday<\/a> originally appeared on Athlon Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ever since Jimmy Butler came on board a few months ago, he and Stephen Curry have been building what you could easily call a bromance. On the court, Butler has quickly become Steph\u2019s go-to guy, someone the front office is counting on to help deliver another ring to the Bay.<\/p>\n

But Butler’s loyalty doesn\u2019t stop when the buzzer sounds. He proved just how deep that support runs with a simple but powerful gesture for Curry this week and let\u2019s just say, fans loved it. His move went viral on Monday and showed everyone that Butler\u2019s got Steph\u2019s back, no matter what.<\/p>\n

Steph Curry is taking part in the American Century Championship, a celebrity golf tournament at Lake Tahoe. And while he was walking onto the course he ran into a familiar face, Jimmy Butler.<\/p>\n

The two men exchanged a few words, and hugged it out before Curry went back to work. The video captured blew up online too; the original clip from NBC Sports and the re-post by Warriors World have racked up nearly a million views combined. Fans also shared their feelings reacting to the video as well.<\/p>\n

Another fan added<\/a>, \u201cDray trying to cancel everything to be here right now after this.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJimmy butler is not the answer. He couldn\u2019t win one game without Steph\u201d- commented<\/a> a fan making his feelings very clear.<\/p>\n

Another fan added<\/a>, \u201cFour hour dive one way. What a teammate!\u201d<\/p>\n

A fan commented<\/a>, \u201cSure didn\u2019t do it in the playoffs\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChemistry at its finest\u201d- added<\/a> another fan.<\/p>\n

Steph Curry gave it his best shot at the American Century Championship in South Lake Tahoe, but came up just short this time around. The 2023 champ finished fifth overall with a final score of 58, while Joe Pavelski finally snagged his first ACC win after a few close calls.<\/p>\n

Curry actually had a solid run, climbing from ninth to fifth with four birdies on Sunday, but a rough double bogey on the 18th did him in. Still, you know, Steph\u2019s fire won\u2019t cool off. Now, it\u2019s back to the hardwood, where he\u2019ll be chasing another ring for the Warriors.<\/p>\n
