Everyone has experienced at least one significant moment in their life that they wish they could revisit. For Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry, one of those moments was probably from a game that took place about seven years ago. If you are an avid NBA follower, then you most definitely know it was a rare experience that left a mark on thousands of fans. Curry recently took the liberty to commemorate the event by honoring a particular Hall of Famer with a present from the Curry Brand’s parent company ‘Under Armour’.

It is no secret that the Golden State Warriors were considered the underdogs in the league with no championships for about four decades until Curry came along. While he took his time to establish his place in the league, Curry eventually led his team to victory in 2015 and gradually began rising to become one of the strongest teams.

To honor the moment, the 4x NBA champion presented sports commentator Mike Breen with a gift for his iconic ‘Bang. Bang’ call that had accompanied the iconic shot.

4 Billion-dollar worth company ‘Under Armour’ recently released the ‘Double Bang!’ colorway sneakers to celebrate the seven-year anniversary of the memorable game. A wave of nostalgia hit fans when the NBA star guard personally met Breen and gifted him the first pair of the new Curry edition.
