Stephen Curry is experiencing the brutal realities of life. You must be thinking about what is causing pain to arguably one of the best players of all time. Brace yourselves, Dub Nation. It’s the paradox of aging! Every person who is born has to witness this hard truth. But Curry was proud, yet nostalgic about his achievements. Hold your hearts! It might bring a tear or two to your eyes.

Fans are loving the Netflix documentary Starting 5. It tracks the years of NBA players throughout their careers. The 6th episode captured the 2024 All-Stars game. Curry sat in the locker room, watching the walls and players. Feeling the thumping in his heart, the point guard said on Starting 5, “Look around the locker room, see the names in here, and guys that have been doing it for a very long time. LeBron, KD, myself. And the new young…young crew that’s coming through.”

That’s when the truth struck him hard. James has played the highest number of All-Star games (20). Durant has been selected for 14, while the 2024 game was the 10th selection for Curry. But the age is catching up to the legends. All are above 35 and there is an unavoidable transformation. Hair turning gray.

With a heavy heart, he made a wish while accepting his rising age and said, “So I hope to be here plenty more years but…old man. You see some grays? Got some grays coming through.” It’s a matter of time before the legends hang their boots while new young blood competes on the field to earn a name and fame for themselves.

The point guard is certainly feeling the rising competition. His record of 9 seasons just got broken.

A recent poll indicates Stephen Curry era is over

Last month, the second annual list of the ’50 most influential figures and forces in sports’ by Sports Illustrated came out. Dub Nation was shocked! Why? Stephen Curry was not on the list. If you thought that was unfair, here’s another bombshell for you. Hold your breath!

On the 8th of October, the league’s annual general manager survey was released. NBA executives, who remain anonymous, voted Luka Doncic as the best point guard with a 37% vote share. Thinking he might be 2nd? No! Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is in 2nd place with 30% of the votes. Stephen Curry was voted in 3rd place with only 23% in his favor.

It ended his 9-season streak of being the best point guard in the eyes of NBA executives. Though some might say that even 3rd place is a good finish, it is nothing but a stark reminder of his career moving towards an end. The question now is, how many seasons are left in him?
