The buttery snack is one of the things he eats pregame. He told The New York Times that he does the same thing before every game and that is “get off the bus, walk into the locker room, put my stuff down, go straight to the popcorn table.”
The basketball star even ranked the popcorn at all the arenas he plays in and gave the Barclays Center where the Brooklyn Nets play as well as American Airlines Center where the Dallas Mavericks play high marks. When it comes to the arena that has the worst popcorn, according to Steph, it’s the Staples Center (now-Crypto.com Arena) which is the home of the Los Angeles Lakers.
