Stephen Curry Goes to Philippines, Does the Nae Nae, Loses One-on-One to a Little Kid
Reigning NBA MVP Stephen Curry took his world champion clout to the Far East today for his sponsor Under Armour's "UA Roadshow." The trek's first stop landed Curry in the Philippine island of Manila for the first time in his life.
Steph seemed excited for the trip, for which he tweeted:
What’s going on Manila??????????? The #UARoadshow is finally here. Can’t wait to see you guys and have some fun today.

The fun began with a press conference, in which he made Filipino teeny-booper actor/singer Daniel Padilla's dream of meeting the Golden State Warrior come true...
I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS.. @StephenCurry30 Thank you.. 🙌🏼 #GodisGood pic.twitter.com/LrV0GlSP3q

Then of course, next on Curry's itinerary was to take the UA Roadshow to the basketball court, which fans could hear him speak and do the "Nae Nae" dance for the crowd...
Shortly thereafter, the real fun began for the fans in attendance when Stephen put on a dunking exhibition like his 2015 NBA Finals opponent LeBron James did in the same country last month...
Although The Champ was there, he seemingly got schooled in a game of one-on-one by a little kid. Check out the kid's handle. Not bad!
To top it all off, Curry reportedly predicted to the Filipino crowd that the Warriors would be repeating their NBA title for the upcoming 2015-2016 season. Great way to pitch those Curry One kicks, courtesy of Under Armour.
Next stop on the UA Roadshow is China. I'm sure they love Curry's sneakers, more than Klay Thompson does his own from there.
