Jimmy Butler got his creative juices flowing after Stephen Curry’s memorable performance against the Lakers on Friday night. After the Baby-faced Assassin sent Luka Doncic to the floor with a vicious crossover before knocking down a step-back three, Butler turned the moment into a social media joke.

His Instagram post brought a 1985 martial arts classic into the mix, leaving NBA fans entertained by the veteran’s latest bit of trolling.

Butler shared an edited video inspired by The Last Dragon, replacing Bruce Leroy’s face with Stephen Curry’s. The clip recreated the iconic exchange in which Leroy is asked, “Alright Leroy, who’s the one-and-only Master?” before responding, “I am!” with Luka’s face swapped to another character that says, “Holy s***.”

In the next slide, the Warriors forward has also included footage of Stephen Curry’s crossover that, embarrassingly, left Luka on the floor. Butler’s edit gave Curry the role of the unquestioned master, with Doncic becoming part of the joke, a pointed jab at the crossover that left him on the floor.

The post came after Golden State erased a 25-point deficit to beat Los Angeles 112–95 in the NBA Cup. Curry finished with 31 points and eight three-pointers, while rookie Yaxel Lendeborg’s earlier criticism of Doncic had added tension to the matchup.

Fans quickly turned their attention to Jimmy Butler’s Instagram and flooded the comments.
