Steph Curry Finally Reveals Long-Awaited Announcement
- Golden State Warriors
A year ago, Steph Curry visited Sony Pictures Animation for what seemed to be an exciting announcement that he teased on Instagram. Fast forward one year later, and Curry has finally revealed what the announcement is going to be.
It turns out, that Steph Curry is going to produce an animated sports movie called “GOAT” at Sony with Bob’s Burgers alumni Tyree Dillihay set to direct. Curry and his co-founder Erick Peyton at Unanimous Media will produce the film with Michelle Raimo Kouyate.
“With ‘GOAT,’ we look forward to uplifting audiences with diverse characters and heartwarming storylines that will have you rooting for the underdog,” said Curry and Peyton.
The film already has a very stacked production cast filled with multiple nominated producers and directors. Director Tyree Dillihay himself has been nominated for two Primetime Emmys with Bob’s Burgers.
“As a lifelong fan of animation and sports, ‘GOAT’ is my dream project,” said Dillihay. “We’ve got a modern take on a classic story in a rich new world where amazing happens. I couldn’t ask for a better team of collaborators to help bring this experiential event to life.”
Sony Pictures will release “GOAT” in theaters on February 13, 2026 – a date that perfectly times with NBA All-Star weekend in Los Angeles. Following in the footsteps of Kobe Bryant, Steph Curry has the chance to do something truly special with his new animated project.

Detroit Pistons’ Chances of Landing Klay Thompson Revealed
- Detroit Pistons
- Golden State Warriors
This summer, the Detroit Pistons have enough cap space to make a splash during the NBA’s free agency period. Throughout the 2023-2024 NBA season, the rebuilding franchise has been linked to Golden State Warriors sharpshooter Klay Thompson as a potential dark horse candidate to lure him in.
However, one Warriors insider suggests the Pistons are a long way from being able to attract a player like Thompson.
“Klay Thompson wants to win,” The Athletic’s Anthony Slater wrote this week. “Don’t expect him to chase the largest possible offer from the Detroit Pistons or Charlotte Hornets, even if that’s the correct financial or leverage move.”
At 34-years-old, Thompson has accomplished plenty in the NBA. He’s a five-time All-Star with four championships on his resume. At this stage in his career, some might expect a player like Thompson to shake hands with the highest bidder and ride off into the sunset.
That scenario would help a team like the Pistons, who could use a proven veteran talent to surround Cade Cunningham.
Thompson’s All-Star days are likely behind him, but he’s certainly still effective. Last year, he appeared in 77 games, averaging 18 points on 39 percent shooting from beyond the arc. He would be an ideal complementary player alongside Cunningham.
But let’s face reality, the Pistons are a long way from contending. Even if they somehow lured in Thompson and another notable player, they would have a tough time convincing themselves they could make a run for the title in the Eastern Conference.
Securing the highest deal possible doesn’t seem to be the priority for Thompson. With multiple playoff contenders set to have plenty of cap space this offseason, they will certainly have the upper hand over the Pistons this summer.
Free agency will be a good opportunity for the Pistons to get on the right path to turning their rebuild around, but they might have to get active in the trade market to lure in a star.
