Throughout the 2010s, Steph Curry and LeBron James had the most memorable rivalry. The two superstars faced off in the NBA Finals for four straight years, and they engaged in some memorable battles on the largest stage in the sport. The two have been discussed a lot lately, with LeBron citing Steph as the only active player he would desire to play with before his career ends. Steph told a tale on the most recent episode of Draymond Green’s podcast about how he initially got to know LeBron.

“He gave me a jersey when I was in college at Davidson, and I still have it on the wall at my parents’ house back in Charlotte,” Steph added regarding LeBron. “To the North Carolina basketball king,'” he wrote on it. and completed, signed, and everything. That’s fantastic since it means I’ll never be too far from my roots. That’s the bizarre aspect.

While the superstar point guard stuck to his original response about how ridiculous LeBron’s wish was, Steph did share the little-known story about their initial encounter with Draymond in response to a query regarding LeBron’s remarks about joining up with Steph.

LeBron’s Lakers team missed the postseason for the second time in his four seasons there, meaning he will get to watch Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors throughout the playoffs this year.
