While there are no NBA games on the calendar due to the coronavirus pandemic, players around the league are choosing different avenues to fill their time. One member of the Golden State Warriors has been particularly active while the association is on hiatus.
Stephen Curry has set up a meal donation plan for out of school children in the Bay Area while advocating for social distancing. To help spread the correct information about coronavirus, Curry hosted a live Q&A on Instagram with infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Before he tuned in for Curry’s informative interview with Fauci, Steve Kerr joined Damon Bruce, Ray Ratto and Matt Kolsky on 95.7 The Game in San Francisco. Kerr had high praise for his point guard’s work during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Via 95.7 The Game:
I had a chance to talk to Bob Myers today. We were talking about some draft prep stuff, and I just said to Bob — ‘can you imagine have a better representative for our organization?’ Obviously, all-world player, one of the great’s of all time but just as a human being representing our organization — what he’s doing, what he’s done with his life outside of basketball. And what he’s doing right now in the midst of this crisis. You know, raising money raising awareness, feeding people is incredible. And I’m so glad he interviewed Fauci, and I’m looking forward to hearing it later.
“I said to Bob [Myers], ‘Can you imagine having a better representative for our organization?’”
“Obviously, one of the greats of all time but just as a human being… Steph’s incredible.” @SteveKerr on @StephenCurry30 👏🙌
