Stephen Curry signs jersey for Lonnie Walker with ‘will never forgive you for Game 4’

The jersey swap has become a hallowed ritual in NBA circles in recent years, with players showing respect for opponents by taking the shirt off of their own back, signing it, and giving it to a player on the other team that earned or has their esteem.

But going into Lakers vs. Warriors in the second round of the NBA playoffs, few would have predicted that Stephen Curry would be giving his to Lonnie Walker IV after the series was over.

Walker, however, had other plans, and after going from DNPs to exploding for 15 points in the fourth quarter — mostly by relentlessly attacking Curry — it would appear he’s earned the two-time MVP’s respect.
