WATCH: NBA star Steph Curry hits the iconic Cristiano Ronaldo ‘Siu’ celebration in Oakland

The four-time NBA champion Stephen Curry is currently enjoying the offseason after his ‘Eat.Learn.Play’ foundation recently paid a visit to the Elmhurst United Middle School in Oakland. The 35-year-old two-time NBA MVP visited with children and was seen playing a friendly game of football, scoring a goal that elicited Cristiano Ronaldo’s famous “SIUUU” celebration.

Over the past ten years, the famed Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, who presently competes for the Saudi Pro League team Al-Nassr, has gained notoriety throughout the world. Athletes from all sports around the world have copied his signature “SIUUU” celebration, in addition to football players and spectators.

Curry stunned aspiring football players during his visit to Oakland’s Elmhurst United Middle School. He can be seen taking a heavy first touch on the ball in a video that has gone popular on social media, but the nine-time NBA All-Star, who has his own memorable “night night” celebration, dribbled past the young player with ease and took a shot. Curry performed an ‘Aeroplane’ celebration after the shot, which was followed by Ronaldo’s ‘SIUUU’.

Here’s the viral video:

Steph Curry’s Golden State Warriors finished 6^th in the NBA 2022-23 season

While losing 4-2 to the LeBron James-led Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Semifinals, Steph Curry’s Golden State Warriors concluded the NBA 2022–23 regular season in sixth place overall. Al-Ittihad, who just signed former Real Madrid star Karim Benzema, took first place in the Saudi Pro League, while Cristiano Ronaldo-led Al-Nassr finished in second place.

The two-time MVP would not pass up the opportunity to spend quality time with the young people from his charity. The “Eat.Learn.Play” foundation was established by him and his wife Ayesha Curry with the goal of giving nourishing food to children in need and, more significantly, of assisting them in realising their full potential. Over 25 million meals have already been distributed by The Warriors Guard Foundation. Curry himself was the focus of the most recent gathering rather than just the kids.
