Stephen Curry is widely regarded as the greatest shooter of all time. The four-time NBA champion has been instrumental in changing the way basketball is played. A lot of credit for that goes to his father, Dell Curry, who helped him with his mechanics and technique. Meanwhile, his mother, Sonya Curry, helped him with the other things in life.

Growing up as a son of an NBA player certainly helped shape who Curry is today. He is well respected among his peers; he has spent his entire career with the Golden State Warriors and has a beautiful family to go home to.

Dell and Sonya allowed their kids to flourish and had certain rules that kept the kids in line and focused. A young Stephen Curry revealed in a video from 20 years ago how his mother made sure he stayed away from bad influences and focused on his education. After the interviewer asked Steph about homework, he replied, “there’s no slacking.”

“She’s always on us about it and she expects good grades and good effort into it,” 14-year-old Curry said. Although Steph made a career in basketball, he’s also a well-educated man. He has always been honest about himself and how influential his parents have been throughout his life.

The parents’ effort is noticeable in Steph’s siblings as well. His younger brother, Seth, is also an NBA player. While not as renowned as his brother, Seth is one of the best shooters in the game. Steph’s sister, Sydel has her own business.

Stephen Curry is an icon

Steph is not only the greatest shooter of all time, but he is also one of the best players of all time. His influence on the sport is unmeasurable. The Golden State Warriors are the most successful franchise since he entered the league. They have won four championships in the last eight years.

Curry won his first Finals MVP last season after a magnificent postseason run. He is also a two-time MVP, eight-time All-Star, and four-time All-NBA First Team member. Curry will have another chance at glory as the Warriors will start the next season as favorites again.
