The Golden State Warriors are off to a hot start in the NBA with a 15-7 record in large part because of their star point guard Stephen Curry. He is leading the team in scoring (19.5), assists (6.5), and 3-point %(43%) and quite possibly could be an All-Star. Along with his hard work on the court, he is very active with his social media and fan outreach off the court. He is always finding new ways to reach his fans, especially in the sports technology hot bed of San Francisco.
Curry is teaming up with SportStream to engage football fans during this weekend’s San Francisco 49ers vs. New England Patriots game.
“SportStream has built an incredible experience around watching my favorite teams and a great opportunity to connect with other fans around all the action,” said Stephen Curry. “I’m looking forward to checking into the app, rooting for the 49ers and talking trash with fans as Kaepernick lights up the Patriots defense on Sunday Night Football.”
The Sportstream event takes place during the Sunday Night Football game at 8:20pm EST. Along with chatting with Stephen Curry, fans following the game within SportStream will get access to real-time stats, injury reports and play-by-play, plus the best social content from their friends, fans, teams, athletes and media personalities on Twitter and Facebook.
Sportstream is excited about the opportunity to team up with Stephen Curry because he represents what they strive to achieve. “We strive to deliver to fans a one of a kind social experience for watching sports, and teaming up with Stephen is a natural fit,” said Bob Morgan, CEO of SportStream. “Having a Bay Area NBA star check into the app in support of his local NFL team delivers the kind of authentic and engaging second-screen experience we want every fan to experience.”
For an opportunity to chat with Curry, fans can join the event at sportstre.am/stephencurry. SportStream is available in the App Store for iPhone and iPad. Download at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sportstream/id556180235?mt=8.
