Being drafted as the first overall pick in the NFL draft is a BIG deal. Not only because of the insane levels of talent that it takes to reach that level but also because of the sudden and unprecedented superstardom that it leads to. Just ask Bryce Young. The Panthers QB is prepared to become a staple in front of the camera. 

Young was chosen as the first overall pick in this years draft by the Carolina Panthers. Almost immediately since Young has shot into superstardom with cameras following his every move. So, with all the limelight surrounding him, what’s his first public appearance? Well, it’s a visit to see nothing less than the greatest show on Earth. 

Bryce Young’s first public appearance post-Draft Night

Young had to make a pitstop to the greatest show on Earth, with Steph Curry squaring up against Lebron James. That’s right, the brand new staple in front of the cameras made a visit to the former Staples Arena, now Crypto.com Arena, to witness the Los Angeles Lakers take on the Golden State Warriors in Game 3 of their Second Round Western Conference Matchup.

The cameras were all over the place to witness the two greatest basketball players of their generation clash in a matchup of the titans. Caught right in the midst of the celebrity row, was none other than self-proclaimed Steph Curry fan, Bryce Young. This obviously isn’t his first rodeo in a basketball arena, but it certainly was his first time catching his idol in person. 

Bryce Young Meets Panthers superfan Steph Curry 

Steph Curry has long been Bryce Young’s favorite basketball player and someone that Young looks up to as a fellow professional athlete. Although he may have caught Steph on a wrong night, as the Lakers delivered a 127-97 whooping to the Warriors, Young was still able to catch up with a long-time superfan of the Panthers. Curry was born and raised in South Carolina and has been a long time Panthers fan all his life.

 Steph Curry even took out time to meet up with Bryce Young during his pregame warmups. And now, Young just so happens to be the latest QB in town for Curry’s childhood team. In fact, Steph tried to buy out the Panthers from their current management but was held up owing to ownership disputes caused by NBA rules. Either way, safe to say, if Young takes the Panthers to great heights through his play, he might soon make Steph’s list of favourites too.
