Golden State Warriors Fans Were Literally Begging Steve Kerr To Play Stephen Curry In The Final Minutes Of Their Preseason Game

The Golden State Warriors kicked off their preseason with an exciting game against the Los Angeles Clippers at the Stan Sheriff Center in Hawaii. In a nail-biting matchup, Stephen Curry’s team managed to edge out the Clippers with a narrow 90-91 victory.

Curry, who only played 14 minutes, was the focal point for fans throughout the game. When head coach Steve Kerr benched him, fans were visibly shocked, anxiously calling for Curry’s return to the court. As the clock ticked to the final five seconds, “We want Curry” chants echoed in the arena.

The scenario proved the Warriors’ fan base’s deep trust and dependence on their star player. Despite the tense moments, the Warriors closed the game with a win, putting them ahead 1-0 in the preseason.

Curry’s leadership has been vital to the Warriors since he was drafted as the No. 7 pick in 2009. Over the years, he has earned the unwavering loyalty of the fan base by guiding the team to four championships. 

However, this offseason saw a significant shift with Curry’s longtime teammate, Klay Thompson, leaving to join the Dallas Mavericks. This departure has only amplified the fans’ reliance on Curry to steer the team through challenging moments.
