Steph Curry surprises Oakland Tech basketball players shopping for sneakers

“What’s poppin’ over here,” Curry asked Jhai Johnson, Taliyah Logwood, Terri’A Russell, Jordan Taylor, and Zhanae Clemons.

While the girls didn’t know who they were about to meet, Curry was given a heads-up by entertainment company, Complex, who filmed the surprise.

The three-time state high school basketball champs giggled and seemed speechless.

Curry asked the group what they were looking for in a shoe, and let them know they were all leaving with a pair of Curry 10s sneakers. The shoes he chose for the girls were inspired by the Met Gala Versace suit he wore in 2021: shiny black with gold swirls.


Coach Leroy Hurt, who brought them shoe shopping, couldn’t be prouder of his team.

“Being state champs, we got a call asking if we could bring a few girls over to the sneaker shop,” Hurt said. “I waited outside so they could be surprised.”

When Hurt joined them inside the store, Curry had a few words for him.
