Stephen Curry Replies To Young Fan Who Wanted His Shoes in Girls’ Sizes

Whether you’re a huge basketball fan or not, we bet you know Stephen Curry is one of the biggest stars in the NBA. Case in point, hhe Golden State Warrios point guard has been named Most Valuable Player twice – and was even elected via unanimous vote for the said award once. Also, some analysts and players consider him as the greatest shooter in NBA history.

Considering how busy he is, it can be easy to assume he doesn’t take time to read fan mails, let alone respond to them, right? Well one young fan found out that, yes, Curry does respond – and he did it in the most epic way possible.

9-year-old Riley Morrison wrote Stephen Curry asking him why his shoes aren’t available in girl sizes.

The young fan, who has the first name as one of Curry’s daughters, wrote him to ask about his Under Armour sneakers.

She wrote:

“I am a big fan of yours. I enjoy going to Warriors games with my dad. I asked my dad to buy me the new Curry 5s, because I’m starting a new basketball season. My dad and I visited the Under Armour website and were disappointed to see that there were no Curry 5s for sale under the girls section. However, they did have them for sale under the boys section, even to customize.”

The letter eventually reached the popular athlete, who is also Under Armour’s “face” for their line of footwear.

Stephen Curry’s reply to the letter is the best thing ever!

He wrote:

“I appreciate your concern and have spent the last two days talking to Under Armour about how we can fix the issue. Unfortunately, we have labeled smaller sizes as “Boys” on the website. We are correcting this now! I want to make sure you can wear my kicks proudly — so I am going to send you a pair of Curry 5s now and you’ll be one of the first kids to get the Curry 6.”

As if that wasn’t enough, Curry also invited Riley to a special event in Oakland. Not surprisingly, the sweet exchange went viral on social media.
