Stephen Curry is arguably the best player in the NBA right now. Despite the Golden State Warriors’ many woes, the man has kept his performances of high quality. Due to this, the man is averaging 29.3 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 6.3 assists. The man is also shooting 48.7% from the field, and 41.7% from deep.

But, as the NBA player clarified, it is not due to Curry’s skill. No, according to him, the reason was far more twisted than anyone could have imagined.
