The WNBA community is brimming with excitement following Golden State Warriors superstar Steph Curry’s heartfelt message of support for the league and its players. Curry, speaking at the Warriors’ exit interview, expressed his admiration for the WNBA and pledged to attend “as many games as possible” during the NBA offseason.
This enthusiastic endorsement from one of the NBA’s most iconic figures has sent ripples of positivity throughout the WNBA. The official WNBA social media account responded swiftly with a welcoming “See ya in SF @StephenCurry30 🤝,” hinting at the anticipation surrounding his potential appearances.
Curry’s comments come at an opportune time, coinciding with the Golden State Valkyries’ inaugural season. The Valkyries, owned by the same group as the Warriors, are set to tip off their campaign today against the Los Angeles Sparks at Chase Center. Curry’s commitment to attend their home games underscores a growing synergy between the NBA and WNBA franchises under the same ownership umbrella.
Many WNBA players and fans alike have taken to social media to voice their appreciation for Curry’s support. The gesture is seen not only as a boost for the Valkyries but also as a significant moment for the entire league, potentially drawing in new fans and further elevating the WNBA’s profile.
“It’s incredible to see someone of Steph’s stature openly show his support for the WNBA,” commented one player on social media. “His presence at games would mean so much to the players and the fans.”
Another fan echoed this sentiment, stating, “This is huge for the WNBA! Curry’s a global icon, and his support can only bring more positive attention to the league.”
Whether Curry will make an appearance at the Valkyries’ historic season opener remains to be seen, but his promise to be present throughout the season has undoubtedly injected a fresh wave of enthusiasm into the WNBA as it embarks on what promises to be an exciting year. The league and its fans eagerly await the sight of the two-time NBA MVP courtside, championing the women’s game.
