Stephen Curry Teases Hornets Return

0:00It's March 24th. This is Charlotte Hornets News today, driven by AI. Your team? Non-stop. S-T-E-R-E seems set to end his NBA career, with the Golden State Warriors after leading them to four championships in the 2010s. But in a recent interview, the 37-year-old star hinted he might not close that door just yet. When asked why he wanted to wear his dad Dell's retired Charlotte Hornets jersey, Curry blushed and said to always keep options open. Dell Curry built a solid legacy with the Hornets after being picked second overall in their 1988 expansion draft. He played ten seasons there, averaging 14 points a game, and shooting three pointers at a 40% clip. The team just retired his number 30 jersey four days ago, honoring him as a fan favorite and the league's six-man of the year in 1994. Family ties run deep with the Hornets. Curry's younger brother Seth, wore number 30 last season before its retirement, and Stephen wears the same number for Golden State.

1:02That playful jersey request has fans buzzing about a possible homecoming nod to his roots. This season, injuries have limited Curry to 39 games, but he's still dominating with 27.2 points, nearly five assists, and over three rebounds per game. Meanwhile, the Warriors are heading to the play internament for the fourth time in six years, testing his patience at the same age his dad retired. While Golden State holds the leverage to keep him, Curry recently ended a long deal with underarmour, showing he's not afraid of big changes. His career twilight feels near, but for now, that Hornets' tease keeps everyone guessing.
