Steph Curry is arguably one of the best shooters to embrace the NBA. The 32-year-old star has truly transformed the league with his impeccable shooting, forcing other teams to change their play style.

Over the last decade, the ‘Baby faced Assassin’ has become the talisman of the Golden State Warriors’ franchise. The Dubs rewarded Curry with a lofty contract as he became the first player in NBA history to be given a super-max contract for five years worth a whopping $201 million.

4) Tonal

Six months ago, the 2-time MVP invested in an at-home smart fitness machine called Tonal. The AI-powered machine is an all-in-one stop for all home workouts. This was especially one of the biggest hits due to the restrictions brought in by the COVID-19 pandemic.

In a press release, Curry even opened up about how the machine has helped him. He said, “I’ve had a Tonal for almost two years. While in quarantine during COVID, I have relied heavily on it to maintain my strength training and believe it is revolutionizing how people will work out now and in the future.”

He was not the only NBA big shot to invest in the same. Clippers’ guard Paul George and Spurs’ Rudy Gay also invested in the company along with Curry. Other investors include Warriors’ teammate Klay Thompson and tennis superstar Serena Williams.

3) Oxigen

In October 2020, Curry invested in a beverage company named Oxigen. The company which was founded by Formula Four Beverages Inc. in 2014 is supposed to assist in muscle recovery.

In an interview with CNBC, Curry opened up about his investment in the company. He said that the company aligns “with brands and partners that I truly believe in.” He also said that he aims “to make sure that people understand the benefits that the product brings to you beyond just the taste.

2) TSM

In 2018, Curry invested in the esports organization TSM. He, along with others, gave a $37 million investment to the organization’s Andy Dinh, according to Matt Perez of Forbes.

In hindsight, it seems to have been a genius move by the 32-year-old, Given the meteoric rise of the esports industry in the last two years, the net worth of the organization has skyrocketed to a whopping $410 million in 2020, a significant increase from $250 million in 2018.

This is just the start for the esports industry, and TSM is arguably one of the biggest players in the game. This could be one of the best investments Curry has made in his career.
