Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry has had an inspiring journey in his NBA career, dominating the hardwood and turning the fortunes for his franchise. Apart from basketball, however, Curry has followed in the footsteps of some NBA greats such as Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, and others by showing his prowess in golf. Ahead of a mouth-watering celebrity golf match, a 43-year-old media personality’s story about the Chef before his rookie season could serve as a warning to Charles Barkley, who recently wrote off Curry in a podcast.

The Dubs had a disappointing exit in the Conference Semifinals against the Los Angeles Lakers with a 4-2 series loss. However, the focus of the players has shifted to the offseason. Steph is gearing up alongside Klay Thompson for an exciting contest against the NFL stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce next week.
