**Los Angeles, CA** – Los Angeles Lakers G-League guard Quincy Olivari is set to sign a shoe deal with Stephen Curry’s Under Armour Curry Brand, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. The deal marks a dream come true for Olivari, who has openly cited Curry as his hero since childhood.

The 23-year-old’s impressive performance in a preseason game against the Golden State Warriors, where he scored 22 points and five three-pointers, seemingly caught Curry’s attention. Following the game, Olivari recounted an emotional meeting with Curry, who reportedly complimented his game and gifted him a signed pair of shoes.

Olivari’s agent, Darrell Comer, confirmed negotiations with Curry Brand officials in recent weeks. While Olivari hasn’t yet played in a regular season Lakers game, his strong performance with the South Bay Lakers (averaging 21.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 5.0 assists in five games) clearly impressed the Curry Brand. This remarkable turn of events highlights the power of perseverance and the potential impact of meeting one’s idols. CNN has reached out to Comer and Curry Brand for comment.
