Stephen Curry was born on March 14, 1988, in Akron, Ohio. From an early age, it was clear that Curry was gifted when it came to playing basketball. His father, Dell Curry, was an NBA player and Stephen would accompany his dad to games and practices. He would spend hours practicing his shot and ball-handling skills, trying to emulate the players he watched. When Curry was young, his family moved to Charlotte, North Carolina where Dell finished his NBA career playing for the Hornets. This allowed Stephen to be immersed in basketball from a very early age. He played for his middle school and high school teams and excelled despite his small physical stature. His precise shooting ability and advanced ball-handling skills allowed him to dominate games. Curry received scholarship offers from many colleges and ultimately decided to attend Davidson College. He made an immediate impact for the Wildcats, averaging over 20 points per game his freshman year. His sophomore year was when he truly burst onto the national scene as he led the NCAA in scoring at over 28 points per game. He led 10th-seeded Davidson on a Cinderella run to the Elite 8 in the 2008 NCAA Tournament. His electric style of play and clutch shooting propelled him to stardom. After his junior season at Davidson, Curry declared for the 2009 NBA Draft. There were questions about how his slight frame would hold up in the NBA and he ended up being selected 7th overall by the Golden State Warriors. After dealing with some ankle injuries early in his career, Curry had his breakout season in 2013-2014 when he made his first All-Star game appearance. He set a record for most three-pointers made in a season with 272. The next year, Curry took his game to an even higher level as he led the Warriors to their first championship in 40 years. He edged out LeBron James to claim the league's MVP award while averaging 24 points and 8 assists per game. His quick release and limitless shooting range made him nearly impossible to guard. He set a record for most three-pointers made in a season with 286. Over the next 5 seasons, Curry established himself as one of the NBA's biggest superstars and the greatest shooter the game has ever seen. He helped lead the Warriors to the best regular season record of all time in 2016 with 73 wins. He claimed back-to-back MVP awards while shattering the three-point shooting record two more times. His ball handling and shooting ability changed the way basketball was played as more focus was put on the three-point shot. In the 2018-2019 season, Curry returned to form after dealing with some injury issues the year before. He helped lead the Warriors to another NBA Finals appearance while averaging 27 points per game. However, the Warriors lost the championship in 6 games to the Toronto Raptors. The next season, injuries to Curry and his All-Star teammates resulted in the Warriors having a losing record. But Curry was still able to showcase his talents, becoming the fastest player ever to reach 2500 career three-pointers made. He continued moving up the NBA's all-time scoring list as well. In the 2021-2022 season, with a healthy roster surrounding him again, the 34-year-old Curry turned in one of the best seasons of his illustrious career. He claimed his first scoring title by averaging over 32 points per game with his lightning-quick release and limitless shooting range still very much intact. He broke Ray Allen's all-time three-point shooting record which had stood for over 10 years. Curry led the Warriors back to championship glory, claiming his 4th title and his first Finals MVP award along the way. Going into his 14th NBA season in 2022-2023, Curry's incredible shooting prowess and ball-handling creativity have inspired a new generation of basketball players. The way he moves without the ball to free himself for three-point attempts has become standard for many perimeter players in the NBA. His clutch shot-making ability in the biggest moments has cemented his legacy as a basketball icon. Off the court, Curry has been an ideal role model and ambassador for the sport. He is famously team-oriented, often deferring to teammates and taking blame when the team loses. His warm personality and strong Christian faith have made him one of the most beloved athletes on the planet. Along with his wife Ayesha, he launched the Eat, Learn, Play Foundation in 2019 which fights for underprivileged children to have equal opportunities and access to nutrition, education and physical activity. The Currys have three young children: Riley, Ryan and Canon. They split time living in both the San Francisco Bay Area and North Carolina. As Curry enters the late prime of his playing career, all eyes are on his pursuit of more championships and individual records. With four championships, two MVP awards, and essentially every important three-point shooting record already in hand, Curry is considered by most experts and fans to be the greatest shooter basketball has ever witnessed. His legacy as one the most influential, dynamic players is stamped in NBA history forever. At just 34 years old, Curry still figures to have more electrifying moments and championships ahead to further cement himself as a Top 10 player of all time. With his skills, basketball IQ and work ethic, Curry will continue shattering defenses, expectations and notions of what was believed possible on a basketball court.

Steph Curry: Flamethrower Nights and Fading Dynasties
Stephen Curry BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Stephen Curry spent the past few days proving that even in year 16 he can still hijack the NBA news cycle on command. According to the NBA s official recap and highlight package from Portland he detonated for 48 points and 12 three pointers against the Trail Blazers on December 14 a throwback flamethrower performance that had league and social media accounts labeling it vintage Steph and circulating side by side graphics with his 2016 MVP numbers. The Warriors still lost 136 to 131 but the statistical explosion and the sheer volume of threes immediately sparked a round of long term legacy chatter on ESPN NBA TV and major sports sites about how Curry is extending the outer limits of shooting longevity and where his all time three point and scoring totals could land by the time he is done.
The comedown was more sobering a few nights later. NBA and NBC Sports Bay Area coverage of the Warriors one point loss to the Suns on December 18 showed Curry in a more subdued but still central role in the final minutes visibly frustrated as another late game opportunity slipped away. In the postgame media availability carried by NBC Sports Bay Area he sat beside Steve Kerr as both fielded pointed questions about Golden State s mounting close losses their 13 and 15 start and whether the dynasty era is finally giving way to something more mortal. That availability and its attendant clips of Curry rubbing his forehead and searching for answers drove a wave of think pieces from national outlets weighing how much longer he can carry a flawed roster and whether the franchise will pivot before his window closes.
On social media the split screen was stark. League and team accounts repeatedly pushed highlights of the 12 threes in Portland while fans and analysts on X and Instagram used freeze frames from the Suns ending to underline narratives about fatigue defensive slippage around him and his burden to manufacture late game magic on most nights. There were no major off court business deals or new brand partnerships reported by leading business outlets in this same window and no verified controversies despite the usual rumor mill that follows any struggling superteam. The net biographical weight of the week is clear another entry in the story of an all time great still capable of historic nights yet increasingly defined by how long he can keep outrunning time and an imperfect supporting cast.
