While Stephen Curry’s extended family is the Warriors, his family is also in fact related to the Warriors. For him, his long-term commitment to the franchise means everything. And the bond with the franchise is so strong that Stephen Curry even has a teammate who’s his brother-in-law.
His sister is married to his teammate and trusted friend, Damion Lee. So for him, the bonds with the franchise are basically family ties.
Curry is one of the best to play for the Warriors and is certainly a future Hall of Famer.

How did Damion Lee meet Stephen Curry’s sister?
The couple met six years ago and went on four dates in five days. However, on September 1, 2018, they promised each other their entire futures in front of their family and friends in Charlotte, North Carolina. And now, they recently revealed that they are expecting their first child.
And as expected, Curry and his family had a wholesome reaction to the news of expecting another Curry baby into this world.

What does this mean for Stephen Curry and the Warriors?
More than anything, having a teammate who is also family sparks a sense of chemistry like no other. While Lee and Curry support each other on the court, their families also support them both off the court. Even their support for each other is extended off the court. Like when the Lee family sat together to support Steph in his 3 point contest victory.

For the Warriors, this shows a close relationship between a crucial rotation player and their franchise cornerstone. After starting his career in Atlanta (excluding his G League run), Lee moved to the Golden State Warriors. And with Curry, even his long-term future seems secure with the Warriors.
Since Curry will evidently not even consider leaving the Warriors any time soon, are we expecting a long-term future for Lee with the Warriors as well? Let us know what you think.
