Plot: Stephen Curry's water breaks on the bench
Eric Paschall and his girlfriend Jordan Poole were sitting on the bench. (Isn't it rare when the players on the same NBA teams date each other? But I bet I find it adorable when they do that.) Stephen was sitting beside Klay. Stephen's teammates were playing against the Los Angeles Lakers at the Chase Center. "So Jordan what's with the foul?" Juan Toscano Anderson asks. "My girlfriend got a foul so I did get a foul also," "Oh that sucks! But at least it's not 6 fouls because the last time that happened was James Wiseman, he and his girlfriend Kevin Looney both got fouled out," "Wow! I can totally tell," Jordan said.
When the 2nd quarter began,
Stephen Curry felt the water gushing through his jeans. "Babe, are you okay?" Klay asks. "No, my water just broke," "Oh crap! Really?" Eric Paschall got up on the bench. "Babe, we need to call Coach Kerr right now!" "Alright I'll get him," While Steve Kerr is writing the game plan on the clip board. Eric went to Call Steve Kerr and told him that Stephen's water had broken on the bench. "Oh God! Okay Get Stephen Curry for me and make sure Klay is coming also," Stephen was trying to breathe through contractions as Jordan had instructed him to breathe. "Just breathe Stephen, we'll get you to the locker room," Jordan, Eric and Klay had taken Stephen to the Locker room to wait for the Ambulance to calm but somehow, Klay was scared knowing that the Ambulance will not make it to the Chase Center so Stephen had to deliver the baby in the Warriors locker room instead. Eric Paschall and his girlfriend Jordan Poole will help Stephen deliver the baby. "Babe, go get the pillows, towels, supplies and everything that's in Steve Kerr's row," "Okay Eric I'll get it," Jordan rushes to the supply room to get pillows, towels, Gloves and etc. Plus the blankets to keep the baby warm until the ambulance arrives.
Klay will have to stay beside Stephen while Jordan washes his hands to keep his hands clean to get ready to deliver Stephen's baby. So now Eric and Jordan had to do what he can to deliver the baby safely. "I don't know how much it will hold any longer," "It's fine Stephen, we're here, we just need you to breathe in and push okay?" Stephen nods. "Don't worry we're not in a rush but I need you to do this," "Okay Eric and Jordan," He said. Meanwhile in the Locker room, Eric had to remove Stephen's shoes, socks and pants to help Stephen push the baby out. Later on, Stephen spreads his legs open.
******Time skip******
It was halftime show as the rest of the Warriors teammates showed up to help Stephen deliver the baby while Jordan Poole the girlfriend of Eric Paschall is still assisting him with the birth. Steve Kerr brought extra towels to wipe of Stephen's forehead. Klay was feeling anxious for Stephen concerning about the health of his wife and the baby. Jonathan Kuminga had told Klay that everything is going to be alright. Stephen screamed his head off as Jordan Poole had encouraged him to push. "You can do this Stephen!" The Warriors staff had came in to call the ambulance however it's going to take half an hour for Stephen to get the baby out.
Andrew Wiggins had no idea that Stephen was pregnant so he managed to call the couple of teammates to gather around. Yet, Andrew asked about why Stephen didn't notify anyone that he is due to give birth? Maybe he didn't want his teammates to think he was making up stuff, but Eric got frustrated with him that Stephen wasn't like that. Most NBA Athletes that got pregnant especially at their teenage years, before and after the NBA draft. It can be anything for the WNBA athletes also. Thus, not only that, Donovan Mitchell gave birth in the locker room while they were having the matchup against Memphis Grizzlies. Donovan had no idea he was pregnant. Although, he was in good hands with the baby when he was sent to the hospital in Salt Lake City Utah.
"Stephen you're not pushing harder, you need to keep going," Eric encouraged. "I'm trying to!" Stephen said. "But don't worry, we'll get through this, you Klay and us, we got each other," At this moment it was the One! Two! Three! Push! Momentum that Jordan would have Stephen to do and yet, Stephen let's out a scream. After a long hour, the baby's head began to crown.
"Damn! That stings!" Stephen complained. "It's okay, Most babies go in the crowning stage," He assured. Steve Kerr wiped the sweat on Stephen's forehead and giving him a massage on the belly trying to get the baby to move around. "You got this Stephen," Coach Kerr went in to help. "You can do this," The hardest part that Stephen would do was to push the shoulders out without the cord being wrapped around the neck. The Warriors locker room was filled with screams and cries until he lets a sigh of relief as Stephen had made a final push.
"It's a girl!" Jordan teared up wrapping the baby in a towel. Stephen breathes rapidly as the Ambulance arrived to pick him up and Klay came in as well. Jordan and his boyfriend Eric Paschall came in while the teammates remained with Steve Kerr just to follow Stephen and Klay to the hospital.
The baby was checked in the NICU and it turned out to be healthy. "What's the name of your baby?" Stephen's mother followed. "Marina," He answered. "Meet Marina, Mom," "Awwww! Hi Marina," She cradled her granddaughter in her arms. "Thank you Klay babe for making this happen," Stephen smiled. "Anytime hon," Klay kissed him on the forehead. He also thanked his head coach and teammates for helping out.
