Novak Djokovic has long expressed his love of basketball. For a fan of the sport, it has been a special trip.
Two weeks after spending time with countryman Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets, Djokovic enjoyed a special moment with Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors.
After the Warriors defeated the Lebron James-led Los Angeles Lakers, Curry met with Djokovic on the court. The four-time NBA champion and two-time Most Valuable Player signed his jersey for the No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings, who gave the Warrior a signed racquet.
Djokovic also caught up with 20-time NBA All Star James.
“Amazing to witness greatness on and off the court. King 👑 Lebron and Steph performance was outstanding last night. So impressive to see them still going strong at their age. Good luck to both of these superstars and all time greats 🙌👏🏀,” Djokovic wrote on Instagram. “Thank you @lakers for kind hospitality few weeks ago and last night 🙏🏻”
The same way Djokovic has spent plenty of time with basketball stars lately, Curry has done the same with tennis players. A week ago, the 10-time All Star caught up with Roger Federer.
