Steph Curry ‘really serious’ about joining Panthers ownership bid

When an NFL team — especially one of the caliber of the Carolina Panthers — goes up for sale, a lot of people are going to say they’re interested. The trick is separating those who are actually serious from those who just think it’s be a fun idea.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry wants to make it clear that he sees himself as the former, not the latter.

Curry was the latest high-profile name to put his name forward as a member of a potential Panthers ownership group, and speaking to ESPN’s Rachel Nichols, he said he’s completely serious about getting in on a bid to buy his hometown team.

Obviously this process has a long way to go. That said, Curry isn’t the only pro athlete who wants in on ownership. Stranger things have happened.
