Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry took advantage of of being mic’d up during their Christmas Day game and made a plea to the NBA.
Ahead of Golden State’s holiday matchup with the Denver Nuggets, knowing he was being recorded, Curry mentioned how players should meet the camera operators who track them throughout the game.
‘I always feel like we should be able to meet the guy or girl that’s gotta be on the camera and follow me or whoever else is mic’d up down here the whole game,’ Curry said during warmups.
‘I feel like that’s pretty personal,’ he continued. ‘Shoutout to you, whoever you are, behind the camera,’ Curry continued while squinting to find which camera had the mic attached to him.
The Baby-faced Assassin went on to wish the camera operator happy holidays as he tuned into the game.

Curry scored 18 points, shooting 3 of 13 from the three point line, in a 115-120 loss to Denver
‘I don’t know if I can get a wave, there’s maybe somebody over there,’ Curry said. ‘They might not have the mic though. That’s wild. Merry Christmas to your family.’
Curry ended up having a slow evening in the Warriors’ 115-120 losing effort against the defending champions.
He tallied 18 points, three rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes of play. Curry also struggled from the three point line, going three for 13 from distance.
Meanwhile, Denver rallied behind the dynamic duo of Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. The Joker had 26 point and 14 rebounds, just two assists shy of a triple-double. On the other hand, Murray lead the Nuggets in scoring with 28 points, five rebounds and three assists.
The Warriors struggled with inconsistency at the start of this season with key players missing from injuries and suspensions. However, the Dubs were able to tie a five-game win streak before the loss to the Nuggets.
Golden State now hold 15-15 record and are slated to play the Nuggets’ NBA Finals foes, the Miami Heat, next on December 28.
