Before Stephen Curry laced up to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers (June 10), his latest Under Armour offering, dubbed the Curry 2 Low “Chef” sneakers, made its way onto social media and unleashed a new level of comedy.
It’s safe to say that the sneakers won’t make it into the possession of a few spectators, but for the Golden State Warrior, that doesn’t worry him. During a post-game press conference after Friday night’s match-up, the sharp shooter answered a reporter’s question on whether or not he wanted to wear his latest kicks during regulation.
“If I had them in the road bag I definitely would’ve worn them, show how fire they are,” Curry stoically said to a room of chuckles. “I love the nicknames, though, that they came up with, but I like ’em.”
