It has been a tumultuous past 48 hours for Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Jimmy Butler was helped off the court on Monday after injuring his knee against the Miami Heat. The team announced on Tuesday that Butler tore the ACL in his right knee, resulting in a season-ending injury.

That same night, Curry and Co. suffered a deflating blowout loss to the Toronto Raptors, 145-127. The Raptors dominated the Warriors at Chase Center, dropping Golden State to 25-20 on the season after another loss.

While he’s not doing everything in his power to lead the Warriors to success, Curry has also been busy with his off-court extracurricular activities. One of the projects he has been most preoccupied with of late is his upcoming animated film, “GOAT.”

The movie is about a small goat who dreams of becoming a professional roarball player. It is loosely based on Curry’s own journey in the NBA. The former back-to-back MVP is producing the film and has also lent his voice as one of the characters.

On Wednesday, Steph Curry asked the help of his wife, Ayesha Curry, to make an announcement about the upcoming sports comedy film.

“Okay, fine, I guess we can’t keep it a secret any longer,” Ayesha Curry started.

"PLEZi is officially making their big screen debut in our film 'GOAT.'"
