The Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry is not broke by any means but even he was left stunned by the massive wealth of Britain’s Royal Family as he found himself shocked at the size of Buckingham Palace.
The official residence of King Charles III, Buckingham Palace sits in the heart of London and is a short trip by aeroplane away from Paris so Curry thought he would check out one of the most iconic landmarks in England and it did not disappoint the four-time NBA champion.
Stephen Curry’s Effortless Pre-Game Routine
“Oh shoot,” Curry said when he caught a sight of the five-billion-dollar Palace. “Is it bigger than the White House?”
The building was originally built in 1703 as Buckingham House for the Duke of Buckingham. It was acquired by King George III in 1761, and then enlarged and transformed into the official royal residence by architect John Nash for King George IV in the 1820s.
As a result, Buckingham Palace is a quintessential symbol of British iconography, representing the monarchy’s heritage and continuity. As the official royal residence, it hosts state events, ceremonies, and public celebrations. Its grandeur and historical significance make it an enduring emblem of British culture, tradition, and national pride.
After checking out royalty the 36-year-old continued through the capital city of England, which is also considered the financial capital of the world and a respected peer to New York’s Stock Exchange.
He checked off the Queen Victoria monument, Big Ben and the London Eye before ending the trip as he prepares to win gold at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, France.
“Being a tourist is fun,” Curry added. “Being able to see different cultures, the history of this beautiful city, London. Amazing to be able to see the world while playing basketball for your country.”
Who do Team USA play first?
Steph Curry will partner up with the Los Angeles Lakers’ LeBron James in their bid to claim gold again at the Olympics in men’s basketball and their campaign will tip off on Saturday, July 28 at 17:15 local time.
They will face the Denver Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic and his Serbia crew in the group stages in Lille in the south of France. The game will be broadcast by NBC.
