“Anybody that knows me knows that I don’t claim the shit I do,” Katt Williams explained on a recent episode of the Good One podcast, recorded live at Vulture Festival in November. “But,” he continued, “I am responsible for the greatest shooter in the NBA, without question.”

Specifically, he’s referring to a question about his relationship with Golden State Warrior superstar Steph Curry. He then shared the story behind this exceptional claim, which began when Curry played in a couple of celebrity basketball games that Williams organized. “People miss-say his name, don’t nobody know who he is, nobody cheers when we say his name,” Williams said of the NCAA scoring champion. But Curry was so impressive in those games that, according to Williams, he told the future MVP that the NBA wasn’t ready for his shooting skills. “If you can shoot before people can start defense,” he advised Curry, “you’ll be the greatest shooter that ever lived.”

Williams began the story by saying, “The jury will decide whether or not I’m being facetious.” You can hear the whole case — and settle on a verdict — in the video below:

In recent years, Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry has become known for his incredible shooting ability on the basketball court. Many have attributed his success to his hard work and dedication to his craft, but could there be another factor at play?

Comedian Katt Williams recently made headlines when he claimed to have helped Curry improve his shooting skills. In an interview, Williams stated that he had given Curry some valuable advice on how to perfect his shot, and that he should be credited for his success on the court.

While some may dismiss Williams’ claims as mere boasting, others believe that there could be some truth to his statements. After all, Curry’s shooting has only improved over the years, leading some to wonder if Williams’ advice actually made a difference.

Whether or not Katt Williams truly played a role in Steph Curry’s shooting prowess is up for debate, but one thing is for certain – Curry’s skill and talent on the court are undeniable. And if Williams did have a hand in helping Curry improve his shot, then perhaps we should all be thanking him for the incredible performances we’ve seen from Curry over the years.
