"Sports teach you so much about life and building great character" - Steph Curry unveils refurbished court in Long Beach, California with help from Snoop Dogg

Steph Curry is giving back to the community through his brand and partnership with legendary rapper Snoop Dogg. Curry and Snoop unveiled a newly refurbished court in Martin Luther King Jr. Park in Long Beach, California.

According to a press release by Under Armour, the Curry Brand helped repair the court inside the facility at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Long Beach. Under Armour and Curry are trying to help more than 100,00 children by renovating more than 20 "safe places" by 2025.

"We want to provide a space where you can come enjoy yourself and get lost in the fun, lost in the competition, invest in yourselves, and be around a lot of amazing coaches and programs," Curry said. This is the beginning of hopefully an amazing journey, not just in sports but in life."

He continued:

"Sports teach you so much about life and building great character, being a part of teams and believing in yourself. We want to be able to provide that for you guys through Curry Brand, and we're really excited about that."

More than 200 kids from the local Long Beach community are expected to benefit from the refurbished court. Snoop Dogg, a Long Beach native, is very happy about their project. He remembered how being a member of the community helped him become a superstar.

"This is the place where I learned how to play basketball, play football, be active in the community and build relationships," Snoop Dogg said. "It's where I learned how to rap, talk and just be me basically – in this park right here."

To cap off the court's unveiling, the Golden State Warriors superstar threw down an incredible alley-oop reverse dunk. Curry is known for his shooting but not for his hops, so it was a surprise and an amazing moment for the kids present.
