Currently a top 3 scorer in the league, Stephen Curry seems to be getting better with age. Coming off his fourth championship, the reigning Finals MVP has been putting up staggering numbers. The Warriors superstar is a perfect mix of talent and an impeccable work ethic.

At age 34-year-old, Curry’s movement off the ball and endurance levels are off the charts. Averaging over 30 PPG right now, there isn’t much spoken about the two-time MVP’s work behind the scenes, unlike Kobe Bryant’s Mamba Mentality or LeBron James spending one million on his body per year.
The baby-faced assassin revolutionalized the game with his unbelievable range of shooting. Nonetheless, the 6ft 3″ guard skill-set wasn’t only limited to his sniper abilities. Curry’s agility, speed, and stamina make it a daunting task for the opponent marking him.
Recently, Curry’s trainer Brandon Payne narrated an NBA player’s experience of working out with the Warriors superstar.
Stephen Curry’s workout isn’t for the light-hearted.
Guessing from his constant movement on the court, one can imagine the miles Curry has on his body. The former Davidson player’s workout regiment is nothing short of intense, something a current NBA player couldn’t keep up to, gassing out in the first couple of minutes.

The eight-time All-Star’s ball-handling, balance, and coordination make it a nightmare for the opposition player guarding him. Over the years, the Warriors guard has visibly packed pounds of muscle, something he hilariously credited to his wife Ayesha’s cooking recently.

A great ambassador of the game, Curry has served as a role model to many who thought the game of hoops was only for those physically gifted.

While the Warriors have been rather inconsistent this season, the same thing cannot be said about Curry who has been carrying the load for most of the nights.
