Steph wears ‘Oakland' Curry 6s in first playoff game at Chase

Share

Ahead of the Warriors' first NBA playoff game at Chase Center, Steph Curry paid tribute to the team's old home.

During pregame warmups before Game 1 of the Warriors' first-round series against the Denver Nuggets, Curry was rocking his "OAKLAND" Curry 6s.

The Warriors closed out their 47-year tenure at Oracle Arena in Oakland with seven straight playoff appearances and five consecutive NBA Finals appearances. But they missed the postseason in the first two seasons at Chase Center.

That changed this season as the Warriors finished the regular season with a 53-29 record, claiming the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference.
