LeBron James and Stephen Curry share the national spotlight as the Los Angeles Lakers play the Golden State Warriors on Christmas.
Before the game, the Lakers superstar pulled off a playful prank on his longtime Warriors rival. James snuck up on Curry while the Golden State guard was warming up and hilariously pretended to block his shot.
The two four-time NBA champions then shared a warm embrace after the funny moment. It was another reminder about the friendship between these players, who are probably the most famous basketball players in the world.

Curry and James played together for Team USA during the 2024 Olympics, winning a gold medal.
While it is unlikely that we ever see them play together in the NBA, they clearly loved sharing the court together while representing their country.
LAKERS – WARRIORS: We should appreciate LeBron James and Steph Curry while we still have them
Both of these players have discussed that it is unclear how much longer we will see them in the league before their inevitable retirements. So it is now as important as ever to appreciate these fun moments while they are both here.
That includes the highlights on the court but the silly stuff before the games, too.
