Stephen Curry is one of the biggest golf enthusiasts in the modern NBA. Everyone knows that golfing is entrenched in the NBA with the infamous stories of Michael Jordan on the golf course with all the top stars of the ’90s. While the league-wide love isn’t the same, Curry spends all of his offseasons on the green.
Curry is currently playing in the American Century Championship golf tournament in South Lake Tahoe and having a blast while doing it. There have been plenty of viral clips of Curry at the event, with him giving an autograph to a 20-year-old after he did 20 push-ups in front of the NBA star.
Curry is performing on the tee as well, participating in the long-drive contest at the tournament. After Curry hit the ball with his club, a loud cheer from the crowd confirmed to everyone that this could be a contest-winning strike. Steph looked back at the crowd and did the iconic Vince Carter ‘it’s over’ celebration.

Curry is having a great time early into his offseason after the Warriors were the last team standing in the NBA this season. The now 4-time champion and Finals MVP has proved to everyone that he is still one of the most dangerous players in the league.
The Warriors have already seen serious changes to their roster with the departures of brother-in-law Damion Lee, Gary Payton II, Nemanja Bjelica, Otto Porter Jr., and Juan-Toscano Anderson. They have re-signed Kevon Looney and added 3 players through the NBA Draft.
Steph is probably not worried about the rotation as long as all the core players return. The loss of GPII has to sting the most, but the Warriors have dealt with worse and come back stronger. Curry can enjoy his time on the tee before switching back to basketball mode closer to training camp.
