Riley Morrison, a 9-year-old, took a page out of Stephen Curry’s book and shot her shot.
It paid off.
Morrison was shopping for basketball shoes for her upcoming season and wanted a pair of Under Armour Curry 5s. But when she went to the website with her dad, they only found the shoes for boys.
The Golden State Warriors fan decided to send the star guard a letter asking why this was the case. Her dad posted the letter on Instagram and it immediately started making the rounds on social media.

It eventually got to Curry, and the two-time NBA MVP responded with a handwritten letter and a couple of surprises for the young hoopster.
Appreciate you helping us get better Riley! We got you. #MoreToCome pic.twitter.com/UBoTklvwhg
