With the ongoing NBA Finals and "Jurassic World" dominating the box office, Chris Pratt has revealed that he is rooting for the Golden State Warriors, which recently defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers with a 104-91 victory in Game 5.
In a recent interview with Complex, Pratt said that he has a friend Erica named who is "a huge, huge, crazy Golden State fan" and recently got diagnosed with breast cancer. The "Jurassic World" star said, "So at the beginning of the season, I reached out to my peeps and got her a whole box of Warrior's shwag, signed balls, signed jerseys, a whole bunch of stuff."
"Now they're about to win the title, which is amazing. They're looking pretty good," Pratt said of the Golden State Warriors and described Stephen Curry as unreal.
After scoring 37 points during the NBA Finals Game 5 battle between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers, Curry fell ill immediately after his postgame press conference. It was announced later on that he was dehydrated, according to CBS Sports.
Pratt added the he loves the fact that the Golden State Warriors is a California team, which is like the youngest brother of the Los Angeles Clippers and the Los Angeles Lakers. He said, "They're like the youngest Hemsworth kid or something. Not Chris, not Liam, but the undiscovered Hemsworth. Now they're that dude. It's Golden State's time. "
After "Jurassic World," Pratt is set to star in Antoine Fuqua's "The Magnificent Seven," which he is currently filming. The action film also stars Vincent D'Onofrio, Denzel Washington, Matt Bomer, Ethan Hawke, Haley Bennett and Byung-hun Lee, among others.
