Steph Curry made sure the 27-year-old nurse knew how important she is.
On Monday, Curry surprised an intensive care nurse and her fellow staffers with a FaceTime appearance in which the two-time NBA MVP shared how inspired he was by her dedication as a front-line healthcare worker.
Shelby Delaney of the Summit Medical Center in Oakland was one of the first nurses to volunteer to help coronavirus patients at the hospital. Curry made sure the 27-year-old knew how important that was. "I can't thank God enough for what you’re doing and just the sacrifice, the selflessness and the way everybody’s coming together," Curry told her on the call."Thank you so much for just what you do, your heart and the inspiration you provide for everybody."
Delaney then told Curry that the respect was mutual. Curry learned about Delaney's fandom, and the hospital and Warriors set up the meeting. Delaney and her now-husband had their first date at a Warriors game and last week wore a Curry jersey under her scrubs to bring out her"inner warrior" during tough times.
