Stephen Curry Reveals His Conversation with Giannis Antetokounmpo when they Met at the Chase Centre

When two NBA MVP’s, Stephen Curry and Giannis Antetokounmpo, met each other on Wednesday, the basketball world was filled with talks of the prospect of a blockbuster move.

Many wondered whether Curry was trying to lure Giannis into making a move to San Fransisco.

However, Curry has now revealed that the talks were about bringing him into a video game and not Golden State Warriors. As per Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, Curry was giving Giannis his gamer tag for the online game Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) and was telling him to join so that they can play the game together.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has been in red hot form for the last two seasons. After winning the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award last season, he looks like a strong contender for winning the award for the second consecutive season. The teams in the NBA will have close eyes on the Greek superstar to bring him in when the chance arises.

Antetokounmpo will hit free agency when his contract expires in 2021, when many teams would try to bring him in.

Hence, Stephen Curry was talking to Giannis after the game between Golden State Warriors and Milwaukee Bucks, many began to speculate a trade talk.

Stephen Curry could be back this season

Very early in the season, Curry suffered a hand injury which is yet to recover. He recently had a second surgery on his hand and his rehabilitation seems to be on a good track. He was reported to have started shooting with his left hand for the first time since his injury before the Bucks game.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr also expects to see Curry sometime before the end of the season.
