Stephen Curry has a special fondness for tennis! As an NBA regular, every now and then he has taken time out to meet tennis players and to attend matches as a fan. Not only that, but the love for basketball goes the other way around too. Just a few days ago, the world’s number one ranked tennis player, Novak Djokovic, met Curry during a Golden State Warriors game.
But now, after the world number one, it’s the second-ranked tennis player, Carlos Alcaraz, who shared a moment with the 36-year-old NBA star. Even though the 20-year-old Spaniard is busy with the Miami Open, he recently got time to meet the Warriors star.

Carlos Alcaraz meets Stephen Curry
With the Indian Wells title in his hand, the two-time Grand Slam champion has reached the quarterfinal round and will face Grigor Dimitrov to move past him in the tournament. But before that, as he is in Miami, he recently got an opportunity to meet Curry as he attended a Golden State Warriors vs. Miami Heat game in between the tournament.
While tennis players quite enjoy watching basketball now and then, the 20-year-old recently shared his interest in the NBA. A picture of him sharing a moment with the four-time NBA champion was recently shared by a popular tennis Twitter handle.

In that picture, the two were spotted having a conversation in front of the crowd as they embraced a handshake with each other. While the 20-year-old Spanish tennis player donned a simple white t-shirt, he carried a jacket on his shoulder with style.
On the other hand, the 36-year-old kept it casual, as he looked dapper in his useful black sporting outfit. However, just a few days ago, he also shared a similar moment with the 24-time Grand Slam champion after he made an early exit from the tournament.
