The Golden State Warriors were one of seven teams involved in the recently finalized blockbuster trade, headlined by former Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant. 

The organization landed Jahmai Mashack and Alex Toohey this past Sunday, but later traded Mashack to the Grizzlies in a separate deal.

While the Warriors haven’t made any significant moves since then, it’s worth noting that their standout point guard, Stephen Curry, made an unexpected decision following the deal. 

“I'm incredibly excited for this year’s (Curry Brand World) tour—not only to host Curry Camp in San Francisco but also to bring it to Asia for the first time," Curry announced on X/Twitter Tuesday.

“I’m looking forward to working with some of the best young athletes in the world at both Curry Camp experiences, teaming up with De’Aaron to connect with fans at the first-ever Curry Con, and immersing ourselves once again in the culture and history of the region.”

Under Armour provided more details about the tour on their website.

“Complementing Asia’s very first Curry Camp, the tour will also introduce the inaugural brand culture conventionCurry Con,” the popular sportswear company stated. 

“This dynamic 3-day fest in Chongqing, open to all fans across Asia, will serve as a hub for innovation and fan engagement fostering a vibrant community around the brand.”

“Attendees will have the chance to explore interactive exhibits, discover the latest product innovations, engage in sports sessions with athletes, and delve deep into the brand's rich history, core values, and forward-thinking vision for the future of sport.”

Curry, a four-time NBA champion who, according to his father Dell, is nowhere near retirement, is coming off a strong 2024-25 campaign in the big leagues. 

A grade 1 calf strain suffered in the postseason ultimately derailed his chances of capturing ring No. 5. Still, Curry was his usual dynamic playmaking self in Year 16. 

The Davidson product averaged 24.5 points, 6.0 assists, and 4.4 rebounds per game, shooting 44.8% from the field and 39.7% from deep.

Until the 2025-26 season commences, it’ll be beneficial for the 6-foot-3 guard to engage in an exciting, basketball-oriented summer event and make Curry Brand history in the process.
