Magic Johnson dunked on by Steph Curry fans over comment about Warriors star’s mom
Social media users are having a field day over Magic Johnson’s recent comment about Steph Curry’s mom.
On Thursday, the five-time NBA champion congratulated the Warriors superstar for winning the Magic Johnson Award, an honor bestowed to a player by the Professional Basketball Writers Association who “best combines excellence on the court with cooperation and grace in dealing with the media and fans,” according to the organization.
Upon congratulating Curry on X, Johnson punctuated his message with a reference to the 36-year-old guard’s mom, Sonya Curry — a nod that bewildered many on the platform.
“By the way @StephenCurry30, I had fun hanging out with your mom last night at the Sparks home opener!” Johnson posted, to which one fan replied, “That last line.. Lord have mercy Magic.”
“Was that last sentence necessary,” another user wrote on X next to two crying emojis.
