Over the last decade or so, the Golden State Warriors have become one of the best teams in the world. They have managed to win four NBA Championships in six trips to the NBA Finals and are truly the definition of a dynasty. While the Dubs have several important pieces on the team that have led to success, unarguably, the biggest reason behind the rise of the dynasty is none other than Stephen Curry.
When Steph entered the league, not many expected him to become the superstar that he has become now. He has changed the way that the game of basketball is played in the modern era, thanks to his insane three-point shooting ability. Evidently, he has a huge fan following around the globe.
Curry is undoubtedly one of the faces of the league, and fans love to see rare pictures of the 34-year-old from time to time.

Steph’s father, Dell Curry, was an NBA player. So it’s obvious that Curry has been brought up in an environment where he has seen a lot of basketball from his childhood. This also allowed him to hang out with NBA players or sometimes even test his skills against them.
