The 2018 World Cup winner is a huge fan of basketball and a known supporter of the Brooklyn Nets, who were eliminated from the first round by the Philadelphia 76ers.

Golden State Warriors remain one of the favourities to win the NBA this season despite a torrid regular season.

Kounde reacts to Curry's performance

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Barcelona defender Jules Kounde has been left impressed with Golden State Warriors point Guard, Steph Curry, following his Game 7 performance against the Sacramento Kings.

Curry made history last night by becoming the first NBA player to score 50 points in a Game 7 encounter.

Kounde, who was watching the Series took to social media to react, claiming Curry was toying with the Kings.

Klay scores 30 as GSW beat Lakers

There was a moment during the Warriors’ series-opening loss to the Lakers when it seemed as if Klay Thompson would never make a shot.

In Game 2, it felt like Thompson might not miss.

Thompson scored 19 of his 30 points in the first half, and Golden State beat Los Angeles 127-100 on Thursday night to even the Western Conference semifinals at one game apiece.
