Golden State Warriors Star Steph Curry Reveals What Barack Obama’s NSFW Message To Him Was

Talk about a bromance.

When Steph Curry won his fourth NBA title back in June, he received a special phone call while still on the court. The call came from former President Barack Obama, who has become great friends with Steph after meeting while he was still in office.  Apparently the two speak quite often with one another, and Steph Curry was all smiles while speaking to the former President. Many have wondered what Obama was saying during that conversation. Curry had even told Obama that he couldn’t say something on TV as there were cameras rolling.

According to a new piece from Matt Sullivan of Rolling Stone, Obama was actually encouraging Curry to get NSFW, but the Warriors star refrained from doing so.

Via Rolling Stone:

“Minutes after his Warriors won their fourth championship, the two-time regular-season MVP clutched his first NBA Finals MVP trophy, then shouted at his haters for the camera: “What are they gonna say now? What are they gonna say now?!” His shirt was sopping wet with champagne, and he wanted to get back to his family. But Curry’s manager handed him the phone for one congratulatory call. Obama encouraged the champ to thump his chest. The 44th president “was dropping some bars,” Curry recalls — and he suggested that Curry add a bit of sauce to the new mantra: “What the f*** are they gonna say now?!”

Curry’s fourth Championship pretty much cemented his  legacy, and you know you’re a big deal when Obama’s name is in your phone.

If only Curry had taken his advice and dropped some F-Bombs, that would have been something else.
