Warriors superstar Stephen Curry accidentally gives Hornets fans hope while accepting the keys to the city of Charlotte

The summer of 2022 has been terrific for you if your name is Stephen Curry. The 2x NBA MVP has been rather very busy these past few months, and why wouldn’t he be? He just won his 4th NBA Championship with the Golden State Warriors, and his first-ever Finals MVP.
Since then, it’s been a mix of work and play for the Champ. He hosted the 2022 ESPYs, becoming the first NBA player to do so, since LeBron James in 2007. There, he won two awards, the Best Record-Breaking Performance, and the Best NBA Player award.
Since then, he also had his graduation from Davidson, got inducted into the Davidson Athletics Hall of Fame, and he also had his jersey retired the same day. While he was in his hometown, the Mayor of Charlotte called up the 2x MVP and called him over to add to the list of felicitations.

While speaking to the media after the honors, Stephen Curry made a small blunder. The Finals MVP was talking about how he wants to finish his career with the Warriors, when he mentioned how many people ask him if he wants to play for the Hornets for a year and come back. The crowd got really excited at the point.
Steph said “HOLD UP NOW” 🚫😂

However, Steph contained the situation pretty quickly, and asserted that he wasn’t making any statements. Carrying on, he said, if he ever wanted to play for a team not named the Warriors, he’s choose the Hornets.
Well played Steph. First he got the fans excited, let them down, and then gave them hope again.
The 2x MVP really knows how to play xD
