“If this is how the trip starts, we’re in for something unforgettable,” said Stephen Curry after concluding Day 1 of his China Tour. The Golden State Warriors star has often travelled to the Asian country since 2014 to promote his Curry brand. If the Curry 12 outperformed expectations with a 40% sales increase over the previous shoe last year, analysts said it was because of Curry’s deep connection with Chinese fans. Therefore, the country was the perfect place for the NBA star to test his first overseas edition of the Curry Training Camp. While Day 1 was a success, things seem to be going at a good pace 24 hours later, too. Curry reciprocated the love he received from the people by learning a new local technique.
Stephen Curry recently took to his official X account to share a post with his 17.5 million followers. Through that, he shared his highlights from Day 2 in China, which involved him trying his own hand at Curry camp, posing in front of the illuminated ‘Under Armour’ and ‘Curry Brand’ logos with his brother Seth Curry and UConn star Azzi Fudd, and the trio receiving their own clay figures. A clip attached to the post also saw the Warriors star watching as an individual performed a local form of calligraphy art.
He invited Curry in and taught him how to rub the blank piece of orange paper on a painted stone to get the imagery on the paper. Curry appreciated the art he helped to create by stating, “Oh, that’s nice”. He even encouraged others to practice it by saying, “You wanna try one?”
Two days in China and the energy has been incredible. The fans and locals have shown me and my team tremendous love. See you at the Grand Finale! pic.twitter.com/g3RW506x8d

Art has been used in a memorable way to welcome the NBA star back to China. The walls adjacent to the footpaths, and even the trains, were adorned with Graffiti that carried the logos of Under Armour and the Curry Brand. A stunning drone and light show was also put on in honor of the player. Thousands of drones were used to display a basketball swish up in the air alongside multiple-story buildings glowing with bright colors. They even re-created Curry’s iconic night-night move, and the player himself, who was watching the show from afar, pulled it out and did the same.
This is a developing story.
