Curry revolutionalized the game of basketball with his ability to shoot long-range shots. Despite being blessed with never before seen skill, the two-time MVP has never taken anything for granted. Steph’s team-oriented approach and unselfish nature only add to his repertoire as a player.
A three-time champion, Curry, has steered away from controversies, focusing on his game and family life. The former unanimous MVP signifies the term family goals, with a successful marriage to entrepreneur and author Ayesha Curry, with whom he has three adorable children.
Draymond Green, who recently had Steph Curry on his podcast, addressed how the latter served as an example for the African American community.

Having played together for the same franchise since being drafted, Steph and Draymond share a great relationship. Dray’s ability to know where Steph would be on the court during any situation is the best example of how well they know each other.
Nonetheless, the former DPOY holds Curry in high regard for setting a precedent for their community. In a recent segment of his podcast, Green had a heartfelt message for Steph.
“For everything that you’ve done and been to me in my life, who you are as a person, a steward of the game of basketball,” said Green.
“When speaking of couple goals, it’s incredible to see two African Americans do what you’ll are doing and I appreciate that and wanna say thank you.”
In the above context, Green was referring to the wonderful relationship between Steph and Ayesha. The two college sweethearts are one of the most powerful couples in the sporting world. The two continue to set benchmarks for others with their relationship, whether it is Steph making appearances on Ayesha’s cooking shows or the latter cheering her husband from the sidelines.
