“He’s all extreme – happy, enjoying, and talking all the time. We love that energy because he loves the game. He probably puts more hours in the gym than I think I’ve ever seen anybody. The consistency in his approach does bring joy to the locker room, and to the plane, no matter where we’re at, you’re going to hear him.” Curry said in the post-game interview.
