This commercial was for the Chase mobile app, where you can transfer or pay money with ease. Also, Chase is a part of the banking business of JPMorgan Chase & Co. In this commercial, we saw Curry entering a green room, where Serena was already sitting there; she was on the phone talking to someone. Then, the Golden State Warriors star picked up a ping-pong paddle and a ball and asked Serena, “Do you play?”

In reply, Serena did not say anything, as she hung up her phone and picked up another paddle, and challenged Curry for a match. At first, the 23-time Grand Slam winner was taking it easy against the basketball player. As Curry won the first point pretty easily, Serena became quite serious. After this, the intensity picked up, as she put Curry on the back foot, which caused some damage to the green room.

Eventually, things got a little out of hand, as they started breaking everything inside the green room. In the end, they had to pay for everything by using the Chase app.

Notably, both Curry and Serena collaborated again for a Subway commercial, where Tom Brady and Megan Rapinoe also joined the duo.
