Stephen Curry chooses side in Red Sox-Yankees rivalry

Stephen Curry is noted as perhaps the most famous fan of his hometown NFL team, the Carolina Panthers. But when it comes to sorting baseball allegiances for Charlotte, N.C., natives, there really is no method to the madness.

Ahead of Thursday night's game against the Nets in Brooklyn, the Warriors star was asked about recent comments by Yankees general manager Brian Cashman referring to the rival Red Sox as "the Golden State Warriors of baseball." Curry takes it as a compliment.

"I like that comparison because the Red Sox are my favorite team," he said Wednesday, via the New York Daily News.
