Hayden Crozier and Lachie Neale continue to make national headlines during their off-season break meeting NBA’s elite players.
The latest player to don the Fremantle Guernsey is NBA’s 2014 MVP Steph Curry, who received a quick lesson on how to kick a sherrin from the Freo players.

Both Crozier and Neale are on a trip in the US with Hype Tours, which is organised by Aaron Ford.
Since the tour started in October the pair have visited games in the NHL including a New York Rangers v Arizona Coyotes match.
They’ve had lunch with Charlotte Hornetts players Jeremy Lin and Cody Zeller
