This past Sunday night, music icon Prince graced the stage at a “Piano and Microphone” show at Oakland, CA’s Paramount Theatre. During his set, he took a moment to acknowledge hometown favorite Steph Curry, who hit a 32-foot buzzer beater the night before to defeat the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Prince shared:
What can you truly count on besides Steph Curry? And you can count on Steph Curry.”
Prince was dope as always. Even repped Oakland: “Nothing in life is guaranteed … well, except Steph Curry.” pic.twitter.com/XCwN1MIaZt

For those that thought Charlie Murphy’s Prince basketball story on Chappelle’s Show was fabricated, turns out, Prince did have some game in his day.
