Distracting Kelsey Plum From Stephen Curry Admiration, 6’8 NBA Forward Stuns the 5’8 WNBA Star

When it comes to basketball legends, Stephen Curry‘s name is right up there, especially in the three-point shooting skills. But in the WNBA, there’s a sharpshooter who’s been giving Curry a run for his money – Sabrina Ionescu. This WNBA season, she’s been running hot on form, breaking records and showcasing her prowess as one of the best shooters in the league.

But it’s not just Ionescu who’s making headlines in women’s basketball. Las Vegas Aces guard Kelsey Plum recently sat with former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson on their podcast, All The Smoke and ended up getting a surprise visitor.

Kelsey Plum, known for her remarkable skills and contributions to the Las Vegas Aces, didn’t hide her admiration for Stephen Curry. The Golden State Warriors point guard has redefined the game with his unparalleled three-point shooting, making him a role model for aspiring shooters across the globe. In a league dominated by giants, Curry, standing at 6’3″, has shown that height is no barrier to his greatness.

The conversation took an intriguing turn when Stephen Jackson asked Plum about her connection with the NBA superstar. “You mentioned that you’re a big fan of Steph Curry. How does it feel to represent Under Armour with Steph? And how’s your shoe coming along? Have you had the chance to talk to Steph a lot?”

Plum’s response added a layer of authenticity to her fandom. She revealed, “Actually, I’ve never met Steph in person.” The revelation was met with a collective stunned reaction from the hosts. Plum continued, “I’m excited about it; we’ve just always tried to make it work, but it just hasn’t happened yet.”

As the 2022 WNBA champion was sharing her yet-to-happen encounter with the Warriors guard, she was interrupted by a surprise visitor. Brandon Ingram, the towering 6’8″ New Orlean Pelicans forward, passed by the studio. While Ingram didn’t make an on-screen appearance, his presence was undeniable. The hosts acknowledged his arrival, leading to a stunned reaction from Plum.

“I heard a story that he checks his Twitter at halftime to see what people are saying, like, ‘Hey, try this move in the game,’ and then he actually goes out and does it,” Plum explained. “It’s crazy to me that he not only pulls it off but also has this kind of comedic side to him. You have to be somewhat sick and funny to do that.”
