During the press conference, Stephen Curry described how Jonathan Kuminga was given the game ball. It was handed to him by none other than Canon Curry. The transaction wasn’t very simple though. The coach gave Canon the ball to pass to Kuminga, and the first thing Canon asked was ‘Where’s the hoop?’

Curry laughed about the same, and said, “Yeah, he’s one of mine. He’s a Curry. He knows what’s up.”

It would be a fun experience for Canon to interact with all the personnel in the locker room. His love for the sport would only continue to grow as he keep growing older.
