The Future Ahead

Last year, Curry scored 50 points in Game 7 against the Sacramento Kings in the playoffs. But with Sacramento’s defence, nothing seemed to work. Sacramento went on to win with a score of 123-126. Curry seems to not only appreciate the game of Fox but also the person that he is.

Fox is currently in his best game this season, with getting his first All-Star. The Kings’ point guard has also previously shown his support for Under Armour and Curry’s signature shoes by putting them to good use during last season’s NBA playoffs. With this multi-year deal, Curry seems to be grateful to partner up with someone who is committed to the brand. There seems to be a zeal to work towards the future. Now, the possibility of bad blood seems to come to an end with this announcement coming up.
