Stephen Curry is one of the most polarizing players in today’s NBA. The man revolutionized basketball with his incredible skill and ability.

In particular, it is Steph’s three-point ability that has made him one of the greats. Widely considered the greatest shooter in NBA history, his shooting has won him several trophies.
Four NBA Championships, two MVPs, two Scoring titles, and a Finals MVP had led to a stacked trophy cabinet for Curry. However, there was one trophy missing. Missing, until it was recently returned to him by a super fan/collector.

The 2017-2018 season was an amazing one for Stephen Curry. The four-time NBA Champion won his third title, all while leading the unstoppable Golden State Warriors.
However, a championship wasn’t the only thing he won that season. Steph was also crowned as the 2017-2018 NBA free-throw percentage champion. Winning it for the fourth time in his career. Unfortunately, this trophy was reported missing, until a Warriors super-collector returned it to Curry. Much to his delight.
Appreciate the help getting the hardware back 🙌🏽

The fan, who is an avid card trader, managed to track down the trophy, before returning it to its rightful owner at the Chase Center.
He could have easily kept it for himself and had a great story. But, he made the decision to return it, and Steph fans around the world are grateful for it.
Curry nearly won the title again last season but was edged out by his teammate Jordan Poole
By now, fans are well aware of just how good a free-throw shooter Stephen Curry is. In fact, he nearly won the trophy for a fifth time last season with 91.9% from the line. However, he lost the title by 0.6%, as his teammate Jordan Poole took it home.

The Warriors continue to impress with their draft selections. From having the two best three-point shooters to now having the two best free-throw shooters. Golden State’s front office can do no wrong.
