Stephen Curry Offers His Gratitude With The Thank You, Oakland

Stephen Curry Offers His Gratitude With The Thank You, Oakland

Stephen Curry is returning to Oakland for Game 3 of the 2019 NBA Finals tomorrow at Oracle Arena and during the series he will wear the Curry 6 Thank You, Oakland colorway with the city’s name boldly featured on the side of the shoe.

This shoe is a celebration of the nearly 426,000 people who call The Town home. And to further express his gratitude for the impact Oakland has made on his life, Stephen is extending a heartfelt gift to 30 special people to say, “Thank You.”

He personalized letters to each of the 30, taking the time to thank them and Under Armour Basketball even surprised a select few in Oakland. The Curry 6 Thank You, Oakland colorway is dedicated to these individuals and all Oaklanders who, like Stephen, carry the same whatever-it-takes attitude day in and day out.

This bond connecting Stephen to the people of Oakland formed from recognition of similarities in their spirits and, in the years that have followed, has become a full- fledged love affair. The Curry 6 Thank You, Oakland colorway is just a small token of his appreciation. No matter where Stephen goes, The Town will always be in his heart.
