Steph Curry on his PGA Tour career prospects and LeBron possibly joining the Warriors

Steph Curry appreciates the assist from longtime Golden State Warriors teammate Draymond Green, but the basketball superstar won’t be trading sports anytime soon. But he will surely take Green’s help in lobbying superstar free agent LeBron James to join their team.

Curry, the two-time NBA MVP, won the American Century Championship in 2023 and was in fourth place entering Sunday’s final round of the celebrity golf tournament in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada. The three-round event features an elite field of golfers from the sports and entertainment industries.

On a recent episode of his podcast, Green suggested that Curry could make the PGA Tour in three years with proper preparation.

Curry laughed off the idea in an NBC Sports interview during Saturday’s second round.

“I love Draymond; that’s why he’s such a great teammate,” Curry said. “He’s hyping me up. I do have so much respect for how hard this game is and what you all do on the Tour week in, week out. There’s no even realistic shot that I’m going after a Tour card. But to see how good I can get when basketball is done, I kind of want to slowly and maybe without that shot say that I had a chance.

“Draymond, I appreciate you, and I love you, and I know you think I’m a great golfer, but there are levels to this! There are levels.”

Curry is playing in the tournament with his father, Dell, and his brother, Seth. All three played in the NBA, and Dell passed on the passion for golf to his sons. The trio have their own competition (with a handicap system) during five years of playing in the ACC tourney, and each has won family bragging rights at least once.

“I love seeing Pops play well,” Steph Curry said. “He’s 62 years old, still doing it. We call him ‘The Originator,’ and he’s showing it right now.”
