Biography

Stephen Curry is an American professional basketball player. Since childhood, sports were his element and natural environment thanks to his parents. It is not surprising that Stephen showed an unusual talent, becoming a rare and very valuable player - a "three-point star".

Childhood and youth

Stephen was born on March 14, 1988 in Akron, Ohio, but spent his childhood in Charlotte, North Carolina. He and his younger brother often attended home games of the local Charlotte Hornets basketball team, for which their father played. Before the start of the game, Stephen and Seth always had time to practice on the professional court. His parents immediately understood that Stephen's biography would be connected with basketball. The boy was born into the family of professional basketball player Dell Curry, an NBA player for 16 years. Another harbinger of future success may have been the fact that Stephen was born in the same maternity hospital as his older comrade LeBron James, and even the same nurse delivered the baby.

After retiring, the athlete's father became a commentator for the Charlotte Hornets. Stephen's mother, Sonya, was a member of the Virginia Tech volleyball team. So the sportsmanship was passed on to children with genes. Sonya organized a school according to the Montessori method, where both boys studied. After her, Stephen continued his studies at the Charlotte school, where he was the soul of the company and an activist. He became a player of the local basketball team and represented it at the state championship. The team was lucky to reach the playoffs three times. After graduation, Curry planned to enter the university where his mother studied, but the university did not offer a scholarship to the aspiring athlete. Davidson College was more cautious. Curry played 104 games in the basketball team of this school and won the title of best newcomer.

Basketball

In 2008, Stephen Curry was included in the second team of the best players of the American college championships. In 2009, he managed to join the first team. The young man had hopes of becoming a professional basketball player. He had to miss his last year of college. The reward for this was the NBA draft, which made him a member of the Golden State Warriors. The athlete began to wear number 7 as a point guard. Before the arrival of the young basketball player, Monte Ellis occupied this position and began to perform the tasks of an offensive defender. Having achieved his goal, Stephen worked at full capacity. In 2010, while playing in the team against the Los Angeles Clippers, the young man set a personal record: he scored 36 points per game, and the athlete achieved a productive triple-double. In 2013, while playing against the New York Knicks, Curry made 11 three-pointers out of 13 attempts. In 2012, Stephen Curry enrolled in the basketball school of LeBron James and Chris Paul. In the match against the Portland team, the athlete demonstrated his acumen by making 4 three-point shots. In the 2012/2013 season, the statistics of such shots were 272 in 78 games. Thus, the basketball player broke Ray Allen's record, set in the 2005/2006 season. Curry was often used as a trump card, since his main ability was the ability to score the ball in the hoop behind the three-point line, while two-point shots were less successful. Teaming up with Klay Thompson, Curry set the record for the most three-point shots made in the 2012-13 season. In total, basketball players conducted such an attack 483 times.

In the 2014/2015 season, the team Stephen played in won 67 times, which also became a kind of NBA and league record. Stephen was awarded the title of most valuable player of the season. Golden State faced the New Orleans Pelicans, Memphis Grizzlies, Houston Rockets and Cleveland Cavaliers, emerging victorious. For his contribution to the team's success in 2015 and 2016, Curry received the NBA Most Valuable Player award. In 2017, the National Basketball League was at its peak. A contract was signed with Curry, under which the athlete's total salary exceeded $ 201 million. Stephen was bound by a 5-year agreement with his native club. In 2018, based on the results of the match against the Sacramento Kings, the athlete was declared the most productive player. Fans and experts have called him a star of modern basketball. Curry's ability to accurately score three-pointers in many games becomes decisive for the team. In the 2019/2020 season, Stephen was seriously injured: in a regular season match with the Phoenix Suns, the player broke his left arm, and his recovery took about 3-4 months. At the same time, the Golden State Warriors lost another important member: forward Kevin Durant joined the Brooklyn Nets. After the start of the pandemic, the Warriors were among the teams that ended their season early due to minimal chances of making it to the playoffs. Even before that, a number of team leaders were injured, which affected the general mood and success of the club. Bad luck continued to reign over the team. Before the start of the 2020/2021 season, Klay Thompson suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon during training and was unable to participate in the games. Curry stepped up to the plate. Giving his all, he demonstrated career-high performances. Despite this, the club took 8th place in the regular season.

By the age of 30, Stephen Curry had already established himself as a professional athlete and family man. In 2011, he married Aisha Curry. His wife is a chef, cookbook author, and blogger with a popular Instagram account. Millions of followers followed her posts and photos. Among them were those who were interested in the basketball player's personal life. The Curry family has three children. In 2012, a daughter, Riley, was born, and in 2015, the parents announced the birth of another daughter, Ryan. Aisha gave her husband her long-awaited son, Canon, in 2018. Curry's wife is one of the most famous wives of NBA basketball players. She attracts attention with her incredible devotion to Stephen, based on her Christian faith. Aisha is always by her husband's side and defends him in any controversial situation.

Sometimes it attracts negativity: a fan of the opposing team once pushed a woman in the belly when she was 8 months pregnant. The couple has their own charity called Eaat.Learn.Play. Thanks to it, during the pandemic isolation, children from low-income families, temporarily deprived of free school meals, were supported. Curry is surrounded by the attention of journalists, so his social activities are covered by the media. For example, the athlete supported the translation of the book Mamba Mentality with Brazilian footballer Neymar, and well-known publications immediately wrote about it. In 2018, Stephen Curry accepted an offer to collaborate with the Under Armour brand. He participated in the release of three models of sneakers named Curry. The shoes he designed were considered an excellent choice for professional athletes. The advertising campaign in which the man participated produced the effect that the brand needed. Curry is 191 cm tall and weighs 84 kg.

Stephen Curry Now

Stephen devotes all his free time to training and today, no less than in his youth, strives to improve his professional skills. In the spring of 2021, the basketball player became the winner of the three-point shooting competition as part of the NBA All-Star Weekend. At the same time, the Golden State Warriors received a wave of negative attention after losing to the Clippers 104-130. Curry understood this too. A clip appeared on the Internet where he yells at his teammates. Recently, the club has welcomed more newcomers, and Stephen, thanks to his experience and age, has become a leader. And commenting on the video, he noted that he was simply trying to instill a competitive spirit in the Golden State participants, which did not save the situation.

However, in October, Curry managed to rehabilitate. In the regular season game against the same Los Angeles Clippers, Stephen Curry made an incredible move in the last game. When the ball went out of bounds, he threw it into the hoop with a throw from the edge of the court, thereby securing his team's victory with a score of 115:113. The basketball player became the most productive player of the match and added 45 points to his personal treasury. Also in October, Curry recorded new achievements: he surpassed the 5 assist mark and the second longest three-point streak in history. However, the record streak of 000 consecutive games with three-pointers also belongs to Stephen himself.
