Though sales of Steph Curry's "Curry 3" Under Armour sneakers are down, the reigning NBA MVP's kicks are still a hot commodity.
And if they're both signed and game-used, it seems like fans will do anything in there power to snag a pair, even if that means prying them away from the tiny hands of a young basketball fan.
The Golden State Warriors point guard put up 26 points in Thursday's 106-99 win over the Utah Jazz. Signed, game-used Curry sneakers go for upwards of $7,000, so naturally, a frenzy ensued after the game when Curry signed his kicks and tried to pass them along to a young fan.

Luckily, security intervened, so the sneakers got into the right hands.
