Steph Curry Walks Off After Reporter’s Warriors Playoff Question

Stephen Curry jokingly walked out of his Golden State Warriors media day press conference after reporter Ann Killion asked about entering the season with low expectations. The exchange followed comments from head coach Steve Kerr, who noted he did not mind people predicting Golden State to miss the playoffs. Curry expressed mock disbelief at the premise before humorously standing up, ending the 17-minute session on a lighthearted note.

The Warriors face low external expectations partly due to significant injury setbacks ahead of the new season. Kristaps Porzingis is out indefinitely with an unspecified health issue, while Jimmy Butler and Moses Moody are recovering from major knee injuries. Meanwhile, Curry stated his own knee feels great after signing a two-year, $116 million contract extension below his maximum to grant the team financial flexibility.
