Steph Curry wants to help save the ‘Warriors House' in West Oakland

Share

Steph Curry is all about Oakland. The Warriors star has embraced Chase Center in San Francisco, but Oracle Arena always will have a special place in his heart. 

The Warriors' previous home helped shape the two-time NBA MVP. He spent the first 10 years of his career with fans cheering the roof down, win or lose. But another Oakland home also means a whole lot to Curry. 

On Thursday morning, Curry posted on his Instagram story the need to save the "Warriors House" in Oakland. 

There has been a GoFundMe created to save the house in West Oakland, with a $350,000 goal. At about the same time of Curry's Instagram post, a $10,000 anonymous donation was posted on the GoFundMe page.

Lloyd Canamore considers himself the Warriors' No. 1 fan, and proved so by painting his home blue and gold. It has become a local attraction with the likes of Curry stopping by. Now, he needs your help. 

Canamore, 58, actually has lived in the home long before it was painted Warriors colors. It has been in his family for 50 years and he has lived there since he was a kid. But his mother died last year, leaving him alone in the house and living off a fixed disability income.

While the Warriors now call San Francisco their home, Oakland long with have roots for the Dubs. Curry is all in on keeping those roots at Canamore's iconic house.
