NBA players use the offseason for a plethora of things. Some like to relax, while others try their luck in other sports.
Speaking of which, many NBA stars, such as Michael Jordan and Stephen Curry, have developed a liking for golf. Curry recently won the 2023 ACC golf tournament and became another addition to the All-NBA golf team.
The above-attached Instagram post featuring Michael Jordan, Stephen Curry, JR Smith, Ray Allen, and Dell Curry is the All-NBA golf team. Fans loved the concept and had various reactions to the lineup.
“Curry traded his soul for accuracy,” a fan claimed.
“JR Smith gonna forget what hole he’s on,” a fan joked.
“They need a big man, Charles Barkley for 6th man,” a fan pointed out.
“Where is Vince Carter?” a fan talked about Vince Carter’s snub.
“Boy, this team is going 76-8, minus the games against LeBron,” a fan commented.
“I’m giving Bron the benefit of the doubt to be on this team,” another fan said.
“All shooters,” a fan praised the team.
“Where is Charles at!?” a fan wondered.
Most fans loved the All-NBA golf team, but a few wondered about the snubs. Charles Barkley’s snub was most notable as he has been an avid golfer from his playing days. Apart from that, fans also wanted to see Vince Carter on the list.
Stephen Curry’s Motivation Behind Winning The ACC Tournament
Stephen Curry’s golf s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s have drastically improved over the last few months. Curry is making some insane shots in golf.
But what’s the reason behind his sudden improvement in s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s? Well, Curry credited losing to the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2023 Western Conference Semifinals for his golf s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s getting better.
“Losing to the Lakers,” Stephen Curry said. “I had an early start on Tahoe prep, that’s it.”
The Warriors were eliminated in six games vs. the Lakers in the 2023 playoffs. Getting more rest than usual during the offseason has apparently done wonders for Curry’s golf s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s.
