Stephen plays for the Golden State Warriors of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He is regarded as the greatest shooter in the history of the NBA. He was crowned as the force behind revolutionizing basketball by inspiring teams to regularly utilize the three-point shot.
He has also been named the NBA Most Valuable Player (MNP) twice and has won three NBA championships with the Warriors. Curry is a seven-time NBA All-Star.
The basketball icon started playing basketball at a younger age as he played college basketball for the Davidson Wildcats.
“He set the all-time scoring record for both Davidson and the Southern Conference and was twice named the conference’s player of the year. During his sophomore year, Curry also set the single-season NCAA record for three-pointers made, and was then selected by the Warriors with the seventh overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft.”
In the year 2014-15, Curry won his first MVP award and thus led the Warriors to their first-ever championship since 1975.
The following season, Curry became the first player in the history of the NBA to be elected MVP by a unanimous vote, and to lead the league in scoring while shooting above 50-40-90.
The same year, the Warriors broke the record for the most wins in an NBA season en route to reaching the 2016 NBA Finals, which they, unfortunately, lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers in seven games.
With the help of Curry, the Warriors returned to the NBA Finals in 2017, 2018 and 2019, winning back-to-back titles in 2017 and 2018, before being defeated by the Toronto Raptors in 2019.
“During the 2012–13 season, Curry set the NBA record for three-pointers made in a regular season, with 272. He surpassed that record in 2015 with 286, and again in 2016 with 402. Curry is currently second in all-time made three-pointers in NBA history, and alongside teammate Klay Thompson, the pair have earned the nickname of the Splash Brothers; in 2013–14, they set the record for combined three-pointers in an NBA season with 484, a record they broke the following season (525), and again in the 2015–16 season (678).”
