13-year-old meets his basketball idol Steph Curry
Justine Remo, the 13-year-old tagged the "Batang Steph Curry ng Pilipinas" due to his on-court moves, has finally met the NBA superstar!
Curry is currently in the Philippines and Justine said he feels closer to his idol more than ever. But little did he know that he was going to meet him face to face.
During Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho's interview with Curry, they surprised Justine with a meet and greet with his basketball hero.
The Golden State Warriors point guard gave his young fan a pair of shoes and a jersey with his own signature. A teary-eyed Justine said that meeting Curry was a dream come true.
Justine, the son of a domestic helper working in Bahrain, was featured by KMJS in February, showing off undeniably impressive assist, shooting and crossover moves that mirror Curry's.
The NBA Most Valuable Player is back in the Philippines for his second visit as part of his SC30 Asian Tour and to promote his signature basketball shoe with Under Armour. — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/BM, GMA News
