NFTs are the next big thing in the blockchain technology industry. After cryptocurrencies, the next big use of blockchain technology has been to store NFTs. The NBA did not take long to acknowledge and start using the same. Stephen Curry was one of the first NBA stars to purchase and use a Non-Fungible Token. His own Twitter handle uses a snapshot of his NFT as the display picture.
Now, Curry announces the release of his own insane NFT collection as a tribute to breaking Ray Allen’s record. He worked together with two exceptional artists including Disney’s first African-American animator, Floyd Norman to come up with this collection. This collection will include 2974 pieces which will each be sold individually.
Surreal… thrilled to announce my first-ever NFT with The 2974 Collection. 2,974 pieces came to life w/ the help of two special artists, @a_mcdonald17 & @FloydNormanDoc, and a whole lot of hard work. A historic moment, all benefitting @eatlearnplay 🙌🏽💯 https://t.co/17fZfgmYdu pic.twitter.com/TjGY9lyGdi

Now that he has broken Ray Allen’s record of 2973 three-pointers made, 2974 is a unique identifier for Stephen Curry. Therefore, as a tribute to his record-breaking career, he has named his NFT collection, the 2974 collection.

What does this mean for Curry and the Warriors?
Curry’s personal venture should ideally not involve the Warriors franchise. However, if any of the Warriors members like staff or players purchase the collectible, it will act as a small contribution to society. As an accountable corporate entity, it is the Warriors’ responsibility to do its bit for society. Since every penny collected from this NFT project goes towards an NGO, it will be an excellent opportunity for the superstar to give back to society.
Own a piece of history.
We're proud to announce @StephenCurry30's first-ever NFT commemorating his new all-time three-point mark, with 100% of Stephen's profits going back to #EatLearnPlay.
The 2974 Collection will be available on Monday.
