[http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/162440525-300x200.jpg]This will be a crucial game for the Warriors In a few hours, western conference top seeds Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs will be locking horns for the second time this season. Spurs will be hosting the Warriors at the AT&T Centre. This matchup isn’t going to be a standard Warriors vs. Spurs one. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr will be resting Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala as they’ve been on the road for quite some time while Spurs will be resting LaMarcus Aldridge, Dejounte Murray, Tony Parker and Kawhi Leonard who was already ruled out due to a concussion(head injury) he suffered vs Oklahoma City Thunder. Golden State Warriors will be looking for a win desperately as they’ve lost their last two games and are 6-4 in the last ten games. San Antonio Spurs on the other hand are 9-1 in their last ten games and will be looking to defend their land as they look to replace the Warriors as the top seed in the west. Warriors and Spurs currently have 52 and 50 wins respectively. So the race for the top seed in the west is on. [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Spurs-300x225.jpg]Spurs will be without their main players, but the Warriors are in a similar position It will be an interesting game, if not an exciting one as both the teams will be resting all of their key players. This game might very well expose the lack of depth the Warriors bench is suffering from. Matt Barnes and Shaun Livingston might have to step up their game in order to get this win. David West is also expected to play a few extra minutes for the Warriors considering the importance of this game. For the Spurs, big men Pau Gasol and David Lee will need to put some extra effort. Patty Mills will most probably be replacing Tony Parker as the starting Point Guard. Jonathon Simmons, Manu Ginobili and Danny Green will be doing what they do best – come off the bench and provide some firepower at the offensive end. All in all, it’s gonna be a fun game as we’ll get to see some fine Spurs team basketball and get to know what the Warriors’ bench players have in store as they’ll be filling in for 3 out of 5 of their starters and key sixth man Andre Iguodala. 

The best out of west Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs face each other
in a crucial match-up ahead of the playoffs.

<h2><strong>Kawhi Leonard 2022: Net worth, Salary and Endorsements</strong></h2>
Kawhi Leonard, who plays primarily as a small forward in the National Basketball Association (<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/">NBA</a>), was born on June 29, 1991, and currently plays for Los Angeles Clippers.

Leonard first played for San Antonio Spurs in the NBA. He was selected with the 15th overall pick in the 2011 NBA draft by the Indiana Pacers, but was traded that night to the San Antonio Spurs. Once there, he played with them for seven seasons.

While he was known for his defensive prowess, Kawhi eventually evolved into an incredible two-way player as his offense improved drastically. 1 Finals MVP, 2 All-Star appearances, 2 All-NBA selections and 2 DPOY titles later, 'the Klaw' wanted a new challenge.

[caption id="attachment_608307" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-608307" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210406104735/2021-03-25T012207Z_490486441_MT1USATODAY15789013_RTRMADP_3_NBA-LOS-ANGELES-CLIPPERS-AT-SAN-ANTONIO-SPURS.jpg" alt="Kawhi Leonard" width="1920" height="1280" /> Mar 24, 2021; San Antonio, Texas, USA; Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (2) reacts after scoring a basket against the San Antonio Spurs the first quarter at AT&amp;T Center.

Toronto Raptors came calling. After winning a championship with the Raptors, Leonard became a free agent. While he could have re-signed, Leonard opted to stay with a team near LA.

While many rumors linked him to the Lakers, Kawhi joined cross city rivals Clippers along with Paul George. Before moving to the Clippers, Leonard is known to have brought a luxurious $13.3 million worth mansion. He lost his father, Mark Leonard, in 2008.

He lives with his mother Kim Robertson and has two children with his girlfriend, Kishele Shipley. Leonard’s uncle, Dennis Robertson, before Leonard's move to the Raptors, frequently mentioned about a Spurs exit.
<h2>Kawhi Leonard with the Toronto Raptors</h2>
Ahead of the 2018-19 season, Kawhi's time with the Spurs was pretty much done and dusted. With a year left in his contract many teams weren't willing to take a risk in trading for 'the Klaw'.

But the Raptors who had seen multiple seasons of early elimination in the post-season took a massive gamble. Trading away one of their biggest legends in DeMar DeRozan, the Raps added Kawhi.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-236174" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200316204842/kawhi-leonard-6-scaled.jpg" alt="" width="2400" height="1499" />

The impact was pretty much immediate. With the Raptors' defense arguably one of the best in the league, Toronto solidified themselves as one of the favorites to win the title. With the Warriors' suffering from injuries in the Finals, the dream became a reality.

Ending the Dubs' dynasty in six games, the city of Toronto were crowned as NBA champions for the first time and Kawhi won his 2nd championship and his 2nd Finals trophy of his career.
<h2>Kawhi Leonard with the LA Clippers</h2>
After an incredible season with the Raptors, Kawhi became a free agent and chose the Clippers as his next destination.

With Paul George forming an incredible partnership with him and a pretty much stacked roster, Leonard and Co. were the favorites to win the 2019-20 season. But an uncharacteristically bad performance meant that the team crashed out in seven games against the Nuggets.

The 2020-21 playoffs however painted a very different picture. With Kawhi and Paul George perform at their peak, the Clippers looked unstoppable. But their progress came to a screeching halt as Leonard suffered from a partial tear to his ACL.

There is not much progress in the 2021-22 season, as Leonard hasn't played a game yet. His injury is a long-term one, and its evolution will determine his return.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Stephen Curry's Net Worth 2024</h2>
Stephen Curry did not earn a lot early in his NBA career. Now, having established himself as one of the best players in the league, he is one of the highest-earning basketball players in the world. He became the first player to sign a $200 million contract in 2017. The sharpshooter signed a four-year $215.35 million contract extension with the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/golden-state-warriors/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Golden State Warriors</a> in 2021, with an annual average salary of $53 million. And while doing so, he also became the first player to sign two straight contracts worth over $200 million.

[caption id="attachment_2474127" align="alignnone" width="4323"]<img class="size-full wp-image-2474127" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-12-20T054606Z_45622464_MT1USATODAY22143535_RTRMADP_3_NBA-BOSTON-CELTICS-AT-GOLDEN-STATE-WARRIORS.jpg" alt="" width="4323" height="2882" /> Dec 19, 2023; San Francisco, California, USA; Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (30) reacts after scoring against the Boston Celtics during the overtime period at Chase Center.

Curry has an estimated net worth of $160 million, according to recent reports. He has earned over $354,721,977 over 15 seasons with the Golden State Warriors. Also, like most world-class athletes, Steph earns a lot from endorsements and partnerships as well. In 2022, he was the 5th highest-paid athlete in the world earning $92.8 million, with $45.8 million in NBA salary and $47 million in endorsements.
<figure class="jsx-b9c5e7fc3c08d611"></figure>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">The early life of Stephen Curry</h2>
Stephen Curry was born on March 14, 1988, in Akron, Ohio. The four-time NBA champion was brought up in Charlotte, North Carolina. After graduating from Charlotte Christian High School, Curry joined Davidson College in 2006. The point guard slowly but steadily became one of the best college players in the country. After three years of college, Curry declared for the NBA draft in 2009. He later completed his bachelor's degree in sociology in May 2022.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Stephen Curryâ€™s family and personal life</b></h2>
Stephen Curry was born to NBA veteran Dell and Sonya Curry. Much like Steph, Dell was a sharpshooter as well and played 16 seasons in the league, with 10 of them spent with the Hornets. Steph was born just two years after his father entered the NBA. So, naturally, he grew up around the league. The two-time NBA MVP has two younger siblings: Seth and Sydel Curry. Seth currently plays for the Dallas Mavericks, signing a two-year contract in 2023.

Steph married Ayesha Curry in 2011 in front of friends and family, after dating for a few years. The couple has three children together: Riley, Ryan, and Canon Curry. Given Curry's popularity, his children are in the spotlight as well and have quickly become internet sensations.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Stephen Curryâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
Stephen Curry was not dreaming of playing college basketball for Davidson College. However, most D1 college coaches thought Curry was too small and slight. Davidson was the only D1 college to offer him a scholarship because the head coach, Rob McKillop, believed in his abilities. It was a blessing in disguise forÂ <em>The Baby-Faced Assassin,</em>Â as he improved consistently for the Wildcats. He soon became one of the best college players in the country. After three years of college basketball from 2006 to 2009 with some impressive performances, he declared for the NBA draft.

The Golden State Warriors selected Steph as the 7th overall pick, arguably the best decision the team has ever made. However, Curry did not bring success to the team overnight. Even though Curry showed flashes of greatness after entering the league, he suffered from multiple injuries that often kept him sidelined. So the Warriors' decision to draft the young star was under scrutiny.

[caption id="attachment_2474092" align="alignnone" width="3287"]<img class="size-full wp-image-2474092" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-12-20T055807Z_1149708489_MT1USATODAY22143576_RTRMADP_3_NBA-BOSTON-CELTICS-AT-GOLDEN-STATE-WARRIORS.jpg" alt="" width="3287" height="2191" /> Dec 19, 2023; San Francisco, California, USA; Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (30) attempts a three-point shot against the Boston Celtics during the second half at Chase Center.

At the time, Monta Ellis was the best player on the team. Despite Curry's injury woes, they continued to believe in him and his abilities. In 2012, the Dubs traded Ellis to the Milwaukee Bucks and showed their intention to build the team around Curry, which was considered a major gamble by many. Safe to say, it has paid off in multiple folds. And no one is questioning the decision now.

As Curry improved his overall health and fitness, he started playing at a high level consistently. Curry won back-to-back MVP awards in 2015 and 2016, with the second one making him the first-ever unanimous award recipient. He led the Warriors to their first championship in 40 years in 2015 and won again in 2017 and 2018.

After a few disappointing seasons, the Warriors were back at the top of the tree as Curry won the Finals MVP award for the first time in 2022 after leading the Warriors to their fourth title in eight years.

<span style="font-weight: 400">In 2023, Curry surpassed Wilt Chamberlain (7,216) for the most field goals made in Warriors history with 7,222. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">He also became the first player in NBA history to score at least 10,000 career points off of three-pointers.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Against the Sacramento Kings, Curry became the first player to score 50 points in a Game 7 and surpassed Kevin Durant's previous record of 48 points before being overtaken by Celticsâ€™ Jayson Tatum.Â </span>

Stephen Curry

Stephen Curry&#8217;s Net Worth 2024 Stephen Curry did not earn a lot early in his NBA career. Now, having established himself as one of the best players in the league, he is one of the highest-earning basketball players in the world. He became the first player to sign a $200 million contract in 2017. The sharpshooter signed a four-year $215.35 million contract extension with the Golden State Warriors in 2021, with an annual average salary of $53 million. And while doing so, he also became the first player to sign two straight contracts worth over $200 million.

Mandatory Credit: John Hefti-USA TODAY Sports Curry has an estimated net worth of $160 million, according to recent reports. He has earned over $354,721,977 over 15 seasons with the Golden State Warriors. Also, like most world-class athletes, Steph earns a lot from endorsements and partnerships as well. In 2022, he was the 5th highest-paid athlete in the world earning $92.8 million, with $45.8 million in NBA salary and $47 million in endorsements. The early life of Stephen Curry Stephen Curry was born on March 14, 1988, in Akron, Ohio. The four-time NBA champion was brought up in Charlotte, North Carolina. After graduating from Charlotte Christian High School, Curry joined Davidson College in 2006. The point guard slowly but steadily became one of the best college players in the country. After three years of college, Curry declared for the NBA draft in 2009. He later completed his bachelor&#8217;s degree in sociology in May 2022. Stephen Curryâ€™s family and personal life Stephen Curry was born to NBA veteran Dell and Sonya Curry. Much like Steph, Dell was a sharpshooter as well and played 16 seasons in the league, with 10 of them spent with the Hornets. Steph was born just two years after his father entered the NBA. So, naturally, he grew up around the league. The two-time NBA MVP has two younger siblings: Seth and Sydel Curry. Seth currently plays for the Dallas Mavericks, signing a two-year contract in 2023. Steph married Ayesha Curry in 2011 in front of friends and family, after dating for a few years. The couple has three children together: Riley, Ryan, and Canon Curry. Given Curry&#8217;s popularity, his children are in the spotlight as well and have quickly become internet sensations. Stephen Curryâ€™s career timeline Stephen Curry was not dreaming of playing college basketball for Davidson College. However, most D1 college coaches thought Curry was too small and slight. Davidson was the only D1 college to offer him a scholarship because the head coach, Rob McKillop, believed in his abilities. It was a blessing in disguise forÂ The Baby-Faced Assassin,Â as he improved consistently for the Wildcats. He soon became one of the best college players in the country. After three years of college basketball from 2006 to 2009 with some impressive performances, he declared for the NBA draft. The Golden State Warriors selected Steph as the 7th overall pick, arguably the best decision the team has ever made. However, Curry did not bring success to the team overnight. Even though Curry showed flashes of greatness after entering the league, he suffered from multiple injuries that often kept him sidelined. So the Warriors&#8217; decision to draft the young star was under scrutiny.

Mandatory Credit: John Hefti-USA TODAY Sports At the time, Monta Ellis was the best player on the team. Despite Curry&#8217;s injury woes, they continued to believe in him and his abilities. In 2012, the Dubs traded Ellis to the Milwaukee Bucks and showed their intention to build the team around Curry, which was considered a major gamble by many. Safe to say, it has paid off in multiple folds. And no one is questioning the decision now. As Curry improved his overall health and fitness, he started playing at a high level consistently. Curry won back-to-back MVP awards in 2015 and 2016, with the second one making him the first-ever unanimous award recipient. He led the Warriors to their first championship in 40 years in 2015 and won again in 2017 and 2018. After a few disappointing seasons, the Warriors were back at the top of the tree as Curry won the Finals MVP award for the first time in 2022 after leading the Warriors to their fourth title in eight years. In 2023, Curry surpassed Wilt Chamberlain (7,216) for the most field goals made in Warriors history with 7,222. He also became the first player in NBA history to score at least 10,000 career points off of three-pointers. Against the Sacramento Kings, Curry became the first player to score 50 points in a Game 7 and surpassed Kevin Durant&#8217;s previous record of 48 points before being overtaken by Celticsâ€™ Jayson Tatum.Â  Stephen Curryâ€™s NBA career stats Regular season games played &#8211; 919 Regular season points per game &#8211; 24.7 Regular season assists per game &#8211; 6.4 Regular season rebounds per game &#8211; 4.7 Playoff games played &#8211; 147 Postseason points per game &#8211; 27.0 Postseason assists per game &#8211; 6.2 Postseason rebounds per game &#8211; 5.3 Stephen Curryâ€™s partnerships and endorsements Some of the most important endorsements and partnerships of Stephen Curry are as follows: Under Armor Brita Palm Nissan/Infiniti JP Morgan Chase Rakuten Chase Sony Unilever Vivo Stephen Curryâ€™s major achievements and awards 4Ã— NBA champion (2015, 2017, 2018, 2022) NBA Finals MVP (2022) 2Ã— NBA Most Valuable Player (2015, 2016) 9Ã— NBA All-Star (2014â€“2019, 2021â€“2023) NBA All-Star Game MVP (2022) 4Ã— All-NBA First Team (2015, 2016, 2019, 2021) 4Ã— All-NBA Second Team (2014, 2017, 2022, 2023) All-NBA Third Team (2018) NBA All-Rookie First Team (2010) 2Ã— NBA scoring champion (2016, 2021) 2Ã— NBA Three-Point Contest champion (2015, 2021) NBA steals leader (2016) 50â€“40â€“90 club (2016) NBA Sportsmanship Award (2011) NBA Social Justice Champion Award (2023) NBA 75th Anniversary Team AP Athlete of the Year (2015) Sports Illustrated Sportsperson of the Year (2022) Consensus first-team All-American (2009) Consensus second-team All-American (2008) NCAA season scoring leader (2009) 2Ã— SoCon Player of the Year (2008, 2009) 3Ã— First-team All-SoCon (2007â€“2009) No. 30 retired by Davidson Wildcats Stephen Curryâ€™s charity work and philanthropy Stephen Curry is a philanthropist and gives back to the community by more than one means.
