In his three-day stay in Manila, the two-time NBA MVP was a busy man

MANILA, Philippines – Vising the Philippines for the second time, Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry was a busy man. 

After arriving in the country late night Thursday, September 6, the three-time NBA champ immediately buckled down to work the day after as he engaged in a two-hour workout at the Kerry Sports Manila in Bonificio Global City in Taguig. 

Shortly after, Curry addressed the media to discuss his aspirations for the upcoming NBA season but not without getting a taste of Filipino cuisine first. Admittedly a sweet tooth, he gobbled down on a serving of halo-halo

Curry told the media what his proudest NBA moment is and how he spent the offseason after capping off his ninth season with another title.
