Going Deeper | Stephen Curry

Selected by the Golden State Warriors as the 7th overall pick of the 2009 NBA Draft, Curry quickly emerged as an elite scoring and playmaking threat as a point guard. He averaged 17.5 points, 5.9 assists, and 4.5 rebounds and finished second in the Rookie of the Year award voting. Although Curry’s skillset and potential shined bright, the Warriors failed to make the playoffs in his first three seasons. This all changed after the Warriors drafted shooting guard Klay Thompson in 2011. Soon thereafter, Curry and Thompson emerged as the most dangerous shooting backcourt in the game, and were dubbed the ‘Splash Brothers.’

After two consecutive playoff appearances in 2012-2013 and 2013-2014, Curry and the Warriors finally broke through in the 2014-15 NBA Playoffs. The Warriors’ balanced offensive attack of Curry, Thompson, Draymond Green, and Andre Iguodala enabled them to defeat LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers for the franchise’s first championship since the 1974-1975 season. In addition, Curry was voted league MVP. 

As it turned out, the ‘Baby-Faced Assassin’ was just getting started.

Curry helped the Warriors win three more championships in 2017, 2018, and 2022. His career accomplishments include ten All-NBA selections, two MVPs, four NBA Championships, one Finals MVP, and two scoring titles. In 2021, Curry passed Ray Allen to become the all-time leader in three-pointers in NBA history. He is widely considered the greatest shooter and one of the best players of all time.
