Charlotte, N.C.

J. Cole was courtside to see his hometown Charlotte Hornets face-off with the Golden State Warriors on Sunday night (November 14), who boast the league’s best record. Footage was captured of Cole linking up with Warriors leader Steph Curry pre-game.

It can’t be made out exactly what Curry is saying to a market J. Cole, but the two shared a laugh and dapped up a couple of times before parting ways. Steph then went to sign autographs for the road fans. Like J. Cole, the NBA’s three-point shot king was raised in North Carolina while his father, Dell Curry, suited up for the Charlotte Hornets in the 90s.

The Hornets ended up handing the Warriors their second loss of the season in a thrilling 106-102 victory. Curry finished with 24 points while Miles Bridges and LaMelo Ball paced Buzz City with 22 and 21 points respectively.

He was also spotted hooping with the Orlando Magic during the team’s off-season workouts.
