Before Stephen Curry’s historic Game 7 performance Sunday, the Warriors star did something a little out of character. After his team’s Game 6 loss to the Kings at home, in which his team appeared lethargic and flat, Curry gave an emotional speech that galvanized his team.
Golden State forward Draymond Green explained on his podcast that he couldn’t sleep after Game 6 early Saturday morning, and he texted Curry and Klay Thompson around 3 a.m., leading to Curry responding at 6 a.m. because he apparently couldn’t sleep, either. Green is usually the Warriors’ vocal leader, but Curry told him he wanted to deliver a message to the team before Game 7.
“I don’t even talk a lot, but I’ve got something to say,” Curry told the team, per The Athletic.
