Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry is a popcorn addict, so much so that he has already tasted the popcorns in every NBA arena.
In the latest report by Marc Stein of The New York Times, Curry professed his love for popcorns. While some may see it as unhealthy, the Warriors sharpshooter has made it his routine to eat popcorn before every game — even way before he does his usual tunnel shot.
“Get off the bus, walk into the locker room, put my stuff down, go straight to the popcorn table,” Curry told Marc Stein on his routine.
Remarkably, given his vast knowledge about the popcorn paradise that is the NBA, Stephen Curry knows exactly which arena serves the best popcorn.
According to Curry — grading the popcorns based on freshness, saltiness, crunchiness, butter and presentation — the best popcorns are from the Dallas Mavericks' American Airlines Center, with the Brooklyn Nets' Barclay Center coming in as a close second.
Unfortunately for Curry, the worst popcorn he has ever had was from the Staples Center, home of the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers. The Dubs will face the Clips in the first round of the playoffs.
Curry may have learned from his wife, Ayesha Curry, a thing or two about food, so fans better trust Steph's judgement in this case.
For the Warriors though, they might have to order plenty of popcorns from the American Airlines Arena or Barclays Center if they want to keep Curry at his best. After all, even head coach Steve Kerr supports him from his rather unusual pre-game meal.
