Stephen Curry has become one of the biggest names in all of sports after his recent comeback Finals conquest. The four-time NBA champion also won his first Finals MVP and solidified a legacy of greatness. In addition, Curry impressed fans worldwide hosting the iconic ESPYs this year. However, it seems the three-point assassin of the NBA is yet to run out of his quota of good fortunes.
Today, the world knows Curry as the face of Under Armour. After a previous stint with Nike that ended in 2013, Under Armour quickly roped in the two-time MVP. Since their partnership, the brand has grown to staggering heights. Recently, the Golden State Warriors star got his sub-label with the brand. With ten shoes already a part of his collection, they are ready to take a monumental step in their partnership.

The focus now shifts solely to the needs and comfort of the all-time three-point shooter of the NBA. Looking to expand in the world of footwear, athletic apparel and accessories, Curry is ready for take-off.
While now Under Armour and Curry are on the same page, there was a time they almost lost the four-time champion. A while ago, earning $20 million a year from the sports giant, Stephen Curry threatened to leave. This came after the two parties had a lack of understanding. However, after one meeting with founder Kevin Plank, they were back on good terms. His lifetime deal instantly makes him rival to the likes of LeBron James and Jordan.
