Steph explains why he deleted Warriors from his Instagram bio originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Relax, Dub Nation.
Steph Curry has finally revealed why he recently removed a reference to the Warriors from his Instagram bio.
And we can thank Bloomberg’s “The Circuit.” host Emily Chang to get the truth out of him.
“I’m shooting with Steph and Ayesha Curry today,” Chang said in a video preview posted to her Instagram on Friday morning. “I just played a nice round of golf. I’m not wondering why he deleted the Warriors from his Instagram.
“Very attentive. Very modest… You’re not going anywhere.”
Chang then looked directly at Steph as she waited for an answer, while a confused Ayesha blurted out, “Wait, what?”
“I was just proud to be an Olympian,” replied Steph, who just won her first gold medal with Team USA in her Olympic debut in Paris this summer.
Several fans were worried when the “Guard for the @Warriors” part of Steph’s bio was removed and replaced with “Olympic Gold Medalist” and had no affiliation with Golden State on the social media platform.
But after Steph signed a one-year contract extension worth $62.6 million on Thursday, which will keep him in the Bay Area through the 2026-27 season, his desire to remain a “Warrior for life” appears to still be the case for the two-time NBA MVP.
“You’re here forever,” Chang said.
“That’s the plan,” Curry replied, laughing. “That’s hilarious.”
