Stephen Curry has landed in China for his Curry Training Camp ‘World Tour’, wherein he will be conducting his famous training camp for the next three or four days. Curry was greeted by thousands of fans who mobbed the streets for the Warriors superstar’s arrival.

Upon his arrival, Curry was also greeted with a stunning drone and light show that used thousands of drones to display a basketball swish up in the air alongside multiple-story buildings glowing with bright colors.
NBA fans saw this video online and were left stumped at how warmly China is welcoming Curry.
“A foreign country is doing more for him than the Warriors front office.”
“I was finna say bruh no way they make the net swish.”
“They ain’t doing this for LeBron. They ain’t doing this for Jordan. Face of the league.”
“China is doing more for Curry than his FO. I hate it here.”
“Very Impressive.”
“Better than fireworks.”
“This is so much cooler than fireworks. Can the United States get into this sh**?”

The noteworthy aspect of this show is not just the massive display of a basketball shot, but also the Curry signature on the ball. The attention to detail here, especially, left the fans in awe of what a foreign country is doing for the Global superstar Curry.
Curry hit the ground running soon after landing in China. From going on live stream to starting his training camp’s first day within hours of landing, Curry seems to have a lot on his plate for this trip to China.

Curry now joins a long list of NBA players who have visited China this offseason. Players like James Harden and Jalen Williams came earlier this month, and even Kawhi Leonard is expected to show up soon.
China has a massive fan base of the NBA. It will not be a surprise if China is also involved in the global expansion league that NBA commissioner Adam Silver is planning. While Adam Silver is focused on Europe at the moment, China could be his next target audience.
Global ambassadors like Curry could promote this league and bring it to a level where the champions could deservedly call themselves World champions by beating the best from around the world.
Spurs’ star De’Aaron Fox was also expected to join Curry on this global trip, but unfortunately, he had to cancel the trip a few weeks ago. While we do not know why Fox did that, having him on this trip would certainly increase the prestige of the camp. Azzi Fudd, the NCAA star from the UConn Huskies, who is also a Curry brand athlete, has also joined him on this trip.
