Though Curry was supposed to play against Washington Wizards on March 1, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr reportedly wanted him to play one proper practise game before returning to the Warriors line-up. After the G League game took place, ESPN retweeted a photo of the two-time MVP on the court, calling him a 'promising kid' that could make it to the NBA one day. Steve Kerr quoted ESPN's tweet and joked about signing the star player on a ten-day contract.
