Alex 'A-Rod' Rodriguez

Alex Rodriguez: Net Worth 2023, Relationships, and Investments Alex Rodriguez Net Worth 2023 As of 2023, Alex Rodriguez&#8217;s reported net worth is around $350 million. By the time A-Rod retired from the park, he accumulated almost $475 million in salary and bonuses, and another $100 to $200 million in brand endorsements. After retirement, he dove into the world of business through A-Rod Corp, an enterprise he began in his teenage years. Thanks to his multiple investments under the umbrella of his investment company, the former New York Yankees slugger&#8217;s estimated salary is around $33 million per annum. While his baseball career may be what brought him into the spotlight, it is surely his affable personality that is keeping him there. Alex Rodriguez’s Early Life and Family Alex Rodriguez was born to Victor Rodriguez and Lourdes Navarro on July 27, 1975, in New York City, United States. A-Rod&#8217;s father was a Dominican-American, while his mother was a Puerto Rican. Victor ran a shoe store in Manhattan when Alex was born. Lourdes, on the other hand, was a secretary until she had to start working multiple jobs. He was raised in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan before his family moved to Miami after their shoe business did not survive in NYC. However, when young Rodriguez was only nine years old, his father abandoned his family and moved back to New York. Alex Rodriguez was the youngest of two half-siblings from his mother&#8217;s first marriage, Joe Dunand, and Susy Dunand. A-Rod studied at Everglades Elementary School in Florida, where a chance meeting with a coach set him up as the catcher on the school team. In addition to that, A-Rod went to Westminster Christian School and Christopher Columbus High School. BOSTON &#8211; SEPTEMBER 28: Alex Rodriguez #13 of the New York Yankees smiles between innings against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park September 28, 2008 in Boston, Massachusetts. (Photo by Jim Rogash/Getty Images) When Victor Rodriguez abandoned 9-year-old A-Rod and his family, A-Rod&#8217;s mother, Lourdes Rodriguez, stepped into the role of both parents. She worked multiple jobs during the day to feed her family and raised the future baseball star right through his school days and through to college. Coordinated by Alex Rodriguez&#8217;s ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis, the future Yankees superstar reconnected with his father for the first time on Father&#8217;s Day in 2000 at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minnesota. A-Rod described that day by saying, as &#8220;maybe the most important four days of my life.&#8221; Alex Rodriguez: Baseball career Alex went from strength to strength after getting drafted first by the Mariners in the 1993 draft. He made his MLB debut as a starting shortstop with the Seattle Mariners on July 8, 1994. A-Rod was only the third player in the past century to make their debut at the tender age of 18 years old, and the first such player in a decade. He picked up friends in the dugout all along. Ken Griffey Jr., one of the most famous pieces of the puzzle in Seattle, reportedly even asked for Rodriguez to have the locker next to his. Rodriguez then set out for new pastures in his free agency in 2000. In a record contract for the league at the time, the Texas Rangers signed the shortstop to a 10-year, $252 million deal in December 2000. With the Texas Rangers, in 2003, Alex Rodriguez won his first American League MVP Award. For the most storied part of his career, A-Rod arrived in New York after the end of the 2003 season. Not one to set the bar for himself, Rodriguez set out to shatter his own record in his move to the New York Yankees as he signed another 10-year $275 million deal with the New York Yankees in 2004. In a trade that put the player alongside his high school friend and fellow emergent shortstop, Derek Jeter, Rodriguez flourished in New York. NEW YORK &#8211; JULY 15: American League All-Star Alex Rodriguez #13 of the New York Yankees reacts after a play in the first inning of the 79th MLB All-Star Game at Yankee Stadium on July 15, 2008 in the Bronx borough of New York City. (Photo by Nick Laham/Getty Images) Following the 2007 season, A-Rod opted out of his ten-year New York Yankees contract and entered free agency again. The controversy arose because many fans and members of the media felt that Rodriguez&#8217;s decision to opt out was selfish and showed a lack of loyalty to the Pinstripes. This sparked debates and discussions about the role of contracts and opt-out clauses in professional sports and the ethical implications of using them. Rodriguez eventually re-signed with the Yankees for 10 years and $275 million, the largest contract in MLB history at the time. After spending 12 seasons with the Yankees filled with achievements and controversy, with four homers short of 700, Alex Rodriguez announced his MLB retirement in 2016 when his contract ended. Alex Rodriguez’s Media Career Upon retiring from his playing career, Rodriguez made a transition into the media world, occupying various roles such as a commentator for Fox Sports 1, a guest judge on the popular show &#8220;Shark Tank,&#8221; and a contributor to ABC News.  OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA &#8211; AUGUST 29: Broadcaster and former MLB player Alex Rodriguez looks on from the field before the game between the Oakland Athletics and the New York Yankees at RingCentral Coliseum on August 29, 2021 in Oakland, California. (Photo by Lachlan Cunningham/Getty Images) In 2018, he joined the broadcast team for ESPN&#8217;s &#8220;Sunday Night Baseball.&#8221; Furthermore, in 2017, he was announced as the host of CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Back In The Game,&#8221; where he assists former athletes in making a resurgence in their personal lives. The first episode of the show premiered in March 2018 on CNBC. Most recently, A-Rod called the National League postseason alongside the likes of David Ortiz and Frank Thomas with Fox Sports. Alex Rodriguez’s Business and A-Rod Corp   A-Rod&#8217;s business ambition stemmed from his father&#8217;s entrepreneurial mind. The Yankees’ baseman envisioned the need to invest his money in the right places from day one. As a result, in his early MLB days, in 1996, A-Rod founded A-Rod Corp as a holding company. Today, his business empire stems from the success of A-Rod Corp. The A-Rod Corp focuses on a variety of business ventures, including real estate, construction, high-end fitness centers, and automotive dealerships. In 2014, Group 1 Automotive, a Houston-based dealership group, announced that they had acquired Alex Rodriguez Mercedes-Benz in League City and changed its name to Mercedes-Benz of Clear Lake. When talking about his real estate investments, Alex Rodriguez founded Newport Property Construction in 2008. In 2012, he also founded Monument Capital Management, which has acquired over $700 million of real estate assets as of 2019 and owns more than 15,000 apartments in 13 states. Alex Rodriguez&#8217;s company has made several investments over the years in various industries, including technology, fitness, and beverage. NRG eSports, TruFusion, Dirty Lemon, Petros Pace Finance, Hims, Hers, etc are a few companies where A-Rod has made significant investments. NEW YORK &#8211; DECEMBER 31: Baseball player Alex Rodriguez during NBC&#8217;s New Year&#8217;s Eve 2008 with Carson Daly in Times Square on December 31, 2007 in New York City. (Photo by Steven Henry/Getty Images) In 2021, Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez made a bid for the MLB franchise, New York Mets. Despite their efforts, the ex-couple lost the bid to another group led by Steven Cohen, who purchased the New York Mets for almost $2.5 billion. In May 2021, Alex Rodriguez also announced a partnership with telehealth company Hims &amp; Hers to create a makeup product for men. Alex Rodriguez’s Timberwolves Deal Along with ex-Walmart CEO Marc Lore, Alex Rodriguez owns a 20% stake in the Minnesota Timberwolves. While it was supposed to be an equal split between A-Rod and Lore, Alex Rodriguez failed to come up with funds for a 10% stake. As a result, A-Rod owns 7%, while Lore owns 13%. They signed the deal to buy the Minnesota Timberwolves for $1.5 billion. Their first downpayment was made in July 2021 for $250 million. Jennifer Lopez perpetually stood as a safety net when A-Rod conducted meetings with investors. Her charming presence made it easier for A-Rod to crack deals. As a result, following their breakup, the former Yankees champion may lose credibility, which in turn could affect his future investments with the Timberwolves. Alex Rodriguez’s Awards and Honors 14× All-Star (1996–1998, 2000–2008, 2010, 2011) World Series champion (2009) 3× AL MVP (2003, 2005, 2007) 2× Gold Glove Award (2002, 2003) 10× Silver Slugger Award (1996, 1998–2003, 2005, 2007, 2008) 4× AL Hank Aaron Award (2001–2003, 2007) MLB batting champion (1996) 5× AL home run leader (2001–2003, 2005, 2007) 2× MLB RBI leader (2002, 2007) Alex Rodriguez was part of a broadcast recognized for its excellence, as the MLB studio show on FOX Sports won back-to-back Sports Emmy Awards for Outstanding Studio Show during its coverage of the 2016 and 2017 Postseason. Rodriguez himself was also recognized for his abilities as a sports analyst, as he received a nomination for an Emmy in the category of Outstanding Sports Personality, Studio, and Sports Event Analyst in 2019.    Alex Rodriguez’s Relationships timeline    Cynthia Scurtis (2002 &#8211; 2008) Madonna (2008) Bethenny Frankel (2009) Kate Hudson (2009) Cameron Diaz (2010 &#8211; 2011) Torrie Wilson (2011 &#8211; 2015) Anne Wojcicki (2016 &#8211; 2017) Jennifer Lopez (2017 &#8211; 2021) Kathryne Padgett (2022) Alex Rodriguez’s ex-wife, Cynthia Scurtis In 2002, Alex Rodriguez and psychology graduate Cynthia Scurtis married after meeting for the first time in a Miami gym. Scurtis worked as a high school psychology teacher in Miami around the time that Rodriguez was gearing to make his mark in the Major Leagues, and the two hit it off there. The two began dating and eventually married in November 2002. A-Rod and Cynthia&#8217;s first child, Natasha Alexander, was born in 2004. Four years later, amidst divorce conversations, A-Rod&#8217;s second daughter, Ella Alexander, was born. In 2008, the pair filed for divorce, with Scurtis citing &#8217;emotional abandonment&#8217; and &#8216;marital misconduct&#8217; as reasons for their separation. A major reason behind the end of the couple’s marriage was his alleged infidelity with pop sensation Madonna, which became a bone of contention between the pair. Today, long years after their hostile divorce, the couple has reconciled for their children and has proven to be on good terms. Alex Rodriguez&#8217;s relationship with Jennifer Lopez In May 2005, Jennifer Lopez, who hails from the Bronx, went to a New York Yankees game against the New York Mets at Shea Stadium with her then-husband Marc Anthony. A photograph was taken of her and Alex Rodriguez shaking hands. Almost 12 years after, in March 2017, rumors of their relationship were confirmed. The couple officially announced the start of their relationship in April 2017. Correspondingly, on May 1, 2017, Jennifer Lopez and Rodriguez made their first public appearance through a red carpet debut at the Met Gala.

(Photo by Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic) In little to no time, the couple met each other&#8217;s family and went on a vacation to Paris in June 2017. By October, conversations about the couple moving in together began. Two years after their relationship started, the couple announced their engagement in March 2019 through an Instagram post. However, the journey to actually getting married wasn&#8217;t so easy for the J-Rod couple. PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA &#8211; JANUARY 02: (L-R) Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez attend the 31st Annual Palm Springs International Film Festival Film Awards Gala at Palm Springs Convention Center on January 02, 2020 in Palm Springs, California. (Photo by Frazer Harrison/Getty Images for Palm Springs International Film Festival) Due to the pandemic, the couple’s wedding was postponed twice. Finally, the couple succumbed to trust issues and announced the end of their engagement in April 2021.  Who is Alex Rodriguez currently dating? Since October 2022, Alex Rodriguez has been in a relationship with fitness coach Jaclyn Cordeiro. She is a fitness model, expert, and coach who also writes. MIAMI, FL &#8211; DECEMBER 14: Jac Cordeiro and Alex Rodriguez attend the Boys &amp; Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade Toy Giveaway and Holiday Party on December 14th, 2022 in Miami, Florida. (Photo by Manny Hernandez/Getty Images) Rumors of the couple’s relationship first started when MLB insider Hector Gomez uploaded an image of David Ortiz, Alex Rodriguez, and “his girlfriend,” during the MLB postseason. Alex Rodriguez’s Children Alex Rodriguez has two daughters with his former wife Cynthia Scurtis. Their first daughter, Natasha Alexander, was born on November 18, 2004, and their second daughter, Ella Alexander, was born on April 21, 2008, in Miami, Florida. Alex Rodriguez-Derek Jeter Friendship Baseball legends Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez started their careers as the best of friends. However, as the years went by, their relationship took a few unexpected detours. NEW YORK &#8211; OCTOBER 20: (L-R) Derek Jeter #2 and Alex Rodriguez #13 of the New York Yankees walk back to the dugout at the end of the top of the fourth inning against the Texas Rangers in Game Five of the ALCS during the 2010 MLB Playoffs at Yankee Stadium on October 20, 2010 in the Bronx borough of New York City. (Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images) The first time A-Rod and Jeter met was in 1993 at a college baseball game between the University of Miami and the University of Michigan. Rodriguez made his MLB debut in 1994, playing his first game for the Seattle Mariners, while Jeter had already been playing in the minor leagues since 1992. Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez were known for their close friendship long before they became teammates in 2004. In fact, their bond was so strong that players from both the Yankees and Mariners often teased them about it. NEW YORK, NY &#8211; OCTOBER 13: (L-R) Derek Jeter #2 and Alex Rodriguez #13 of the New York Yankees talk in the field against the Detroit Tigers during Game One of the American League Championship Series at Yankee Stadium on October 13, 2012 in the Bronx borough of New York City, New York. (Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images) The beginning of the end of the friendship between Jeter and Rodriguez started to show in late 2000. While Rodriguez signed a $252 million contract with the Texas Rangers, which was the largest in sports history, Jeter signed a $189 million deal to stay in the Bronx. This should have been a happy occasion for both of them, but things took a turn for the worse when A-Rod treated a question about who could potentially break this contract with arrogance. In April 2001, Jeter reportedly had a relationship with Joy Enriquez, who was previously asked by A-Rod to accompany him to the All-Star Game. After Rodriguez introduced Enriquez to Jeter, the two began dating for a brief period. In 2004, A-Rod made his way to New York to join the Yankees, becoming teammates with Jeter after a decade-long friendship and recently fostering a feud. The Yankees&#8217; General Manager, Brian Cashman, reported that Jeter was pleased with Rodriguez&#8217;s decision to switch positions to third base, allowing Jeter to continue playing shortstop. When A-Rod’s name came up in connection to the steroid scandal, Jeter offered a public show of support for his friend. The then-Yankees captain told reporters to give his teammate a chance to respond before passing judgment and expressed his frustration with the widespread belief that everyone in the league was using steroids, which he denied. Despite their initial close relationship and all the twists and turns their friendship took, Jeter and Rodriguez are simply acquaintances today. Overall, the two baseball legends have put their past behind them and moved on, focusing on their post-baseball careers and personal lives.

LeBron James

Who is LeBron James? LeBron James is widely considered to be one of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball. Born in Akron, James spent the majority of his professional career with the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Los Angeles Lakers, winning multiple NBA championships and earning numerous accolades along the way. Dec 7, 2023; Las Vegas, Nevada, USA; Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (23) reacts during the second quarter against the New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA In Season Tournament Semifinal at T-Mobile Arena. Mandatory Credit: Kyle Terada-USA TODAY Sports &nbsp; Known for his exceptional all-around game, James is a four-time MVP and has been selected to the All-Star team a record 18 times. LeBron James&#8217; early life LeBron James was born on December 30, 1984, in Akron, Ohio. James started playing basketball at a young age, showing great potential. He soon became one of the best high school basketball players in the country. James graduated from St. Vincent&#8217;s St. Mary High School and declared for the NBA draft in 2003. James led St. Vincent&#8217;s St. Mary to three state championships in four years. With Keith Dambrot and Dru Joyce II coaching the side for two years each, the Fighting Irish had a record of 101 victories and 6 losses during James&#8217; time. LeBron James&#8217; wife and children LeBron James was raised by his mother Gloria James, who struggled to make ends meet as a single mother. Not much is known about James&#8217; biological father Anthony McClelland, who was largely absent from LeBron&#8217;s life during his childhood. He is also reported to have criminal records to his name. James has been in a relationship with his high school sweetheart Savannah since his teenage years. The couple tied the knot on September 14, 2013. Savannah James has indulged in several business ventures over the years and is also a noted philanthropist. She has also established a mentorship program for young women. LeBron and Savannah have three children together: Bronny, Bryce, and Zhuri James. Both Bronny and Bryce are following in their father&#8217;s footsteps to become basketball stars. In December 2023, Bronny made his long-awaited collegiate debut with the USC Trojans, less than five months after suffering cardiac arrest in July. LeBron James&#8217; net worth 2024 LeBron James has an estimated net worth of $1 billion, according to recent reports. James is the first active NBA star to achieve this feat. The four-time NBA champion signed a two-year $97.1 million contract extension with theÂ Los Angeles Lakers last year. As per reports, James has earned around $387 million in salaries in his 20-year NBA career so far. Furthermore, he has also made a fortune with his endorsement deals and investments, which have helped him build his massive business empire. LeBron James&#8217; NBA career timeline TheÂ Cleveland Cavaliers selected hometown boy LeBron James as the first overall pick in the 2003 NBA draft. James was a superstar straight out of high school and took the league by storm. He played for the Cavaliers from 2003 to 2010 in his first stint and won MVP awards in 2009 and 2010. Even though the Akron Hammer was almost unstoppable on the court and won many individual accolades, team success was hard to come by.

He received major backlash from Cavs fans after this move. However, he continued his dominance, alongside superstars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh for the Heat, and clinched his first NBA title in 2012, followed by another in 2013. He also won the NBA MVP award and the Finals MVP award in 2012 and 2013. The estranged son then returned to the Cavaliers in 2014 and took the team to four straight NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors. He helped the Cavs win their first-ever NBA title in 2016. James once again left the Cavs, this time to join the Los Angeles Lakers, in 2018 and led them to the 2020 NBA title.Â  Following the retirements of Udonis Haslem and Andre Iguodala, LeBron James is currently the oldest player in the league.

LeBron James&#8217; rings Over his illustrious 20-year career (and counting), James has won four NBA championships. He has led three different franchises &#8211; the Miami Heat, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Los Angeles Lakers &#8211; to NBA titles. James&#8217; first title came in 2012 with the Heat, when he won his first Finals MVP award, followed by a second consecutive title in 2013. After returning to Cleveland in 2014, James delivered on his promise to bring the city its first major sports championship in over 50 years. In 2016, James powered the Cavaliers back from a daunting 3-1 deficit against the record-setting Golden State Warriors in the Finals. James won his 4th championship and NBA Finals MVP award in 2020, leading the Los Angeles Lakers to a championship against his former side, the Miami Heat. LeBron James&#8217; shoe deals LeBron James signed a huge deal with Nike even before he entered the NBA. As James&#8217; superstardom rose, he became one of the most important faces of the brand, with his line of signature shoes, which is in its 20th version now. The four-time NBA MVP signed a lifetime deal with Nike in 2015 for an undisclosed fee. LeBron James&#8217; house LeBron James has reiterated multiple times that he does not spend his hard-earned money without reason. Former teammate Dwyane Wade once revealed that James is one of the cheapest players in the league despite being one of the richest. However, James knows how to spend his fortune in style. And when it comes to where he lives, the King does not compromise. According to reports, LeBron owns multiple properties in California, Ohio, and Miami, that are worth a combined estimated value of $100 million. LeBron James&#8217; car collection LeBron James is known for having an extensive collection of cars, estimated to be worth over $2 million. Some of the standouts include a Chevy Camaro SS, a 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder, and the Dodge Challenger SRT 392. He also owns a Lamborghini Aventador Roadster, a 720-horsepower V12 supercar. Another notable element of his collection is a Mercedes luxury sedan, the Maybach S650, worth around $200,000. Notably, after teaming up with Shaquille O&#8217;Neal in Cleveland, Shaq gifted LeBron a Rolls Royce Phantom for his 25th birthday. The luxury car goes from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds and is valued at around $505,000. LeBron James&#8217; controversial moments LeBron James has not had any major controversies so far. However, there have been a few questionable moments in his career. James was the centerpiece of controversy during his high school career for accepting gifts. Then his infamous move to the Miami Heat in 2010, announced on national television, stirred up a lot of controversy. James, who is very vocal about his political beliefs, was criticized for his association with Nike because of the brand&#8217;s political stance. Also, his comments on America after Brittney Griner&#8217;s detainment in Russia sparked some controversy. Will LeBron James retire? LeBron James, 39, is currently playing his 21st NBA season in the NBA. The future Hall of Famer is still playing at the highest level, but he is definitely at the tail end of his career. However, the Lakers icon will not retire after the 2023-24 season as he has multiple times opened up about his desire to play alongside his son Bronny James in the league. Bronny will be eligible to declare for the NBA draft next year. So there is a high chance that James may continue playing in the league until his son enters the NBA.

<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.

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.

<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.

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>

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.

Curry recently signed a new long-term contract with the brand which will run past his retirement as per various sources.

So far, Under Armour and Curry have released 11 signature shoes together. Stephen Curryâ€™s house Stephen Curry has bought multiple properties over the years. He reportedly purchased a house near his hometown Charlotte for $1.275 million in 2011, eventually selling it in 2019.

Â The new Atherton propertyÂ is an upgrade from their previous home in the same area. Curry also bought a house for $2.1 million in Florida last year, which is not occupied by anyone. He reportedly purchased it for a family member. Stephen Curryâ€™s rings Stephen Curry has won four NBA championships with the Golden State Warriors so far.

The nine-time NBA All-Star won another MVP award in 2016 as well. Curry and the Dubs continued their ascension and have won three more titles.
