Fudd grills Curry over UConn game absences on podcast

Azzi Fudd hosted NBA star Steph Curry on her “Fudd Around and Find Out” podcast Friday, using platform to question his lack of attendance at UConn women’s basketball games during college. Their connection dates back to 2018, when Fudd and teammate Cameron Brink earned spots at Curry’s SC30 Select Camp, evolving into an NIL partnership with Curry’s SC30 Inc.

Fudd aired a specific grievance: despite five seasons of opportunity, Curry never appeared at a Huskies home game. Curry offered a tongue‑in‑cheek excuse, blaming NBA scheduling and former GM Larry Riley for keeping him out of the Northeast. He promised to make amends, hinting at a future visit to the Chase Center.

Redemption may arrive June 17, when Fudd’s Dallas Wings face the Golden State Valkyries at the Chase Center, giving Curry a chance to “make up for five years in one night.” Fudd remained skeptical, noting his promise to “try.” The matchup will test whether Curry can turn a podcast jab into a live‑court cameo.

Regardless of Curry’s attendance record, the podcast exchange underscored the growing intersection of college women’s basketball and NBA branding. Fans will watch the June 17 showdown not just for the on‑court action but to see if the Warriors legend can deliver on his promise and earn a nod from the outspoken freshman.
