Wardell Stephen "Steph" Curry II (born March 14, 1988) is a professional basketball player for the Golden State Warriors of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Listed at 6 ft 3 in tall and weighing 190 lb, Curry plays the point guard position and is considered by some to be the greatest shooter in NBA history. The 2015 NBA Most Valuable Player and a two-time NBA All-Star, he is the son of former NBA player Dell Curry.
Curry played college basketball for Davidson. There, he was twice named Southern Conference Player of the Year and set the all-time scoring record for both Davidson and the Southern Conference. During his sophomore year, Curry also set the single-season NCAA record for three-pointers made.
Curry was selected with the seventh overall pick in the 2009 NBA draft by the Golden State Warriors. During the 2012–13 season, he set the NBA record for three-pointers made in a regular season with 272. The next season, Curry and teammate Klay Thompson set the NBA record for combined threes in a season with 484 as the pair were given the nickname the "Splash Brothers". In 2014–15, Curry eclipsed his own record by knocking down his 273rd three-pointer on April 9, 2015, finishing the regular season with 286 three-pointers and was named MVP after leading the Warriors to a franchise-record and NBA-best 67 wins on the season.
On May 13, 2015, in a 98-78 win over the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 5 of the Western Conference semi-finals, Curry became the fastest player to make 100 three-pointers in the playoffs, reaching the milestone in 28 games. Ray Allen held the previous record at 35. In addition, Curry became the first player in NBA history to have six three-pointers and six steals in a single playoff game. Three days later, in the series-clinching Game 6 victory, Curry made a playoff career-high 8 three-pointers, en route to 32 points, including a buzzer-beater from behind half-court. Curry propelled the Warriors to their first Western Conference Finals since 1976. On May 23, in a 115-80 win over the Houston Rockets in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, Curry broke the record for three-pointers made in a single post-season with his 59th coming in just 13 games.

I hoping that someday I can meet you. I am really inspired by your story and how you worked well to reached where you are now.
Team Play
Mr. Curry, it's a shame the way you all are playing. You all are so careless with the ball and sense as those you all don't have the will to win. No driving to the basket, Mr. Poole and no sense of urgent about his play. He acts so unconcerned. You all need to meet as a team and do some soul searching of your own self. Are you all Man or are you all mouse. Because now you all are playing like mouse. You, Thompson, Green and Wiggins and Patton alone with Loonies. Is the backbone to the team? If Poole don't want to play like a champ, then bench him. Together you all stand and divided you all fall. Get together and go win for yourself. Stop the kids from showing you all disrespect. Tell Green to stay focus! Tell Poole to get it together. I pray you all get it together. Prove to yourself that you are the Champ. Am I right sir. I'm very disappointed in the way my team is playing.
Your my favorite basketball player in the world too me
Hey Steph I’m one of your biggest fans.
I started watching you play ever since I was five years old with my granny. I’m currently 11 years old. I hope you win the playoff and beat the lakers.
I hope you win the finals and win again And tell Jordan Poole to start passing the ball and stop trying to make every shot and tell draymond to stop getting technical fouls and stop arguing with the referees and tell Kevon looney to get rebounds
good luck with playoffs
