The NBA is a huge business, where everything seems sanitized, but sometimes, during a press conference, emotion takes over. Like that night when the young Quincy Olivari answered a question about Stephen Curry.
Author of 22 points in the rout of the Lakers against the Warriors, the rookie simply broke down when he explained everything that the leader of the Warriors meant to him.
“I’ve loved it since I was 11-12 years old… I don’t even know what to say” https://twitter.com/TheHoopCentral/status/1847522330194694231sobs in his voice. “He’s my favorite player of all time, and the first thing he said to me was that he was a fan of my game. Honestly, I’m a big fan of his. I had his jersey. He signed it twice. I slept in this swimsuit.”
The proof in pictures…
After the meeting, Quincy Olivari ran into Stephen Curry, and he kindly asked him if he could take a photo with him! “I wanted to be like him so much, that just meeting him, having him respect me and then being able to talk… He gave me his shoes and signed them. This matters more than anything in the world! »
