Stephen Curry Honors Chris Webber With Chrome Sneakers vs Kings
Stephen Curry honored Sacramento legend Chris Webber by wearing the "Chrome" DaDa Supreme CDubbz sneakers Webber wore in the 2002 NBA All-Star Game as the Warriors host the Kings Friday. Curry, who parted ways with Under Armour last November and is currently a sneaker free agent, has frequently paid tribute to past and present stars. Webber’s peak years in Sacramento ran from 1998-99 to 2004-05, when he made five All-NBA teams and averaged 23.5 points, 10.6 rebounds and 4.8 assists. Merlin senses a deliberate ritual. The shoe nod connects eras, honors a franchise icon and lets Curry shape the story around the matchup. It is quiet respect and a subtle way to stir the crowd and remind everyone of Sacramento’s rich history before the ball even tips.
