Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has signed a shoe endorsement contract with Chinese company Li-Ning -- a landmark 10-year deal, sources tell ESPN. Li-Ning extends his Curry Brand venture globally and encompasses basketball products, athleisure, the ability for Curry to sign athletes under his brand, and a full golf line.
Chet Holmgren reflects on his struggles in the Spurs series: “I feel like there were definitely opportunities to get more attempts up that I didn't in the moment. That's an area to improve.”
SGA noted that OKC “needs Chet.” Asked about his conversations with Holmgren after the series, if they’ll talk about his approach to the summer:
“I haven’t talked to Chet about that. I won’t. I don’t feel like I need to. I didn’t perform my greatest this series either. Chet won’t come to me with a development for the summer, you know? Chet knows how much I care about this game. I know how much Chet loves this game. … he’s going to be a better player because of his make-up, his talent. I don’t need to umbrella Chet. He’ll figure it out.”
