Stephen Curry and LeBron James might be two of the greatest ever basketball stars we are witnessing in modern-day NBA. From breaking numerous records to leading their teams to being the most popular faces of the league, the 3-Point King and King James have shared the center stage for almost a decade. Even in 2023, they are continuing to do so.

Stephen Curry and LeBron James

While many would deem all NBA fanatics to be lucky enough to witness the legend of these two spoken off players, but they seem to have a connection which goes beyond our imagination. Stephen Curry and LeBron James contested in 4 straight NBA Finals, after which the duo shared nothing but respect and admiration for each other’s game.

However, what if I tell you that their relationship existed much before the time each of them entered the league or even started playing basketball. Sounds intriguing? Doesn’t it Without further ado lets get straight into it.

Stephen Curry birthplace is similar Lakers star LeBron James

Yes, LeBron and Steph were born in the same hospital – Akron General Medical Center. On one hand where LeBron was born on 30th December 1984 to a single mother, Steph was born on 14th March 1988 in the household of one the best shooters in the NBA in late 80s – Dell Curry. The mentioned coincidence is intense as well as strange, yet it is safe to state that if one wants their child to become an all-time NBA great, being born in Akron General Medical Center is a great start.

Steph once said, “We share a lot in common. Born in the same hospital. I do claim Akron as my birthplace. It’s pretty dope that he is the kid from Akron but to know two guys from Ohio are at the highest level right now.”
