A look back at Damion Lee's big day as he received his NBA championship ring and scored 22 points in helping Phoenix Suns top his former team Tuesday.
Lee said has talked with his former teammates Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Poole, Gary Payton Jr., Klay Thompson, Juan Toscano-Anderson, Curry and “everyone” on the team about the championship hardware“They’re like, ‘Yeah bro, this is your day, soak it in. Enjoy it all,’” Lee said “That’s really what it’s about. Love to win the game, that’s first and foremost, but my journey, man. To get here is nothing but God and perseverance. To have this ring is going to mean a lot. It’s going to mean a lot.
The two went over film sitting side-by-side on the sideline. Then they took the court as Mutombo was putting a hand up while Lee was shooting corner 3s. Fifteen minutes later, Warriors coach Steve Kerr did his pregame media availability and was more than happy to talk about his former player. “Damion is a special guy,” Kerr said. “When you look at his journey to get to the NBA and now to have the success that he’s having, winning a championship with us, and now going to Phoenix and becoming one of the best 3-point shooters in the league, and a really valuable role player off their bench. We couldn’t be happier for Dame and his family."
"Tonight will be special. I'm really excited to see him get his ring and to hear the ovation that he gets because he played a key role for us last year not only on the court, but just his character, his commitment to the team." Steve Kerr on Damion Lee.
