Steph Curry has revealed that he wanted to be drafted by New York Knicks back in 2009 NBA draft, not by his current side Golden State Warriors.
The Warriors had been to the playoffs only once in the previous 15 seasons. However, with Curry and then Klay Thompson- drafted in 2011, they began to turn things around, later adding Draymond Green and building a championship mentality.
Speaking on Showtime's "All the Smoke" podcast, Warriors star said:
"I wanted to go to New York and thought I was going to New York.
"At the draft in the green room, I was like, 'Oh, get to the eight spot and New York can get me.'
"And then I got the call from [former Warriors GM] Larry Riley, like 'We're going to pick you in the seventh spot.'"
But now Curry claims he doesn't want to move anywhere else:
"I don't want to move anywhere," he said.
"I love the Bay."
