LeBron James and Stephen Curry are two of the NBA’s biggest stars. The duo have had numerous intense face-offs, leading their respective sides to historic wins along the way. Nevertheless, they have immense respect and regard for each other’s games. The lesser known fact, however, is that both of them were born in the same city. Not just that, there’s something even more bizarre.
About three and a half years apart, LeBron and Steph were born in the same hospital too. Although LeBron has proudly claimed himself to be tied with Ohio, Curry has often stated that Charlotte is his hometown. The pair is now entering a fresh season in the league, on the back of some great performances. While LeBron shone for the Lakers along with Anthony Davis, his 33-year-old counterpart was the lone ranger for the Warriors in a career-best outing in terms of points.
