The greatest shooter in the history of the NBA. That’s what fans believe who Stephen Curry is. And there’s hardly anyone who would deny that. If not the very best, Curry is one of the best players in the league right now. His entry into the Golden State Warriors gave new hope to Warrior fans. Being considered the underdogs in the league for a long time, the Warriors selected Curry with the 7th overall pick after the Minnesota Timberwolves skipped him.
Curry’s early seasons didn’t bring a significant change to the team. In fact, their days of glory started in the year 2015. Under the newly recruited head coach, Steve Kerr, the Warriors went on to win their first ever championship in four decades. Curry was named the league MVP. From then on, the Warriors went on to smash records with Curry leading the way in most of the games.
