He added that he loves the fact that they have begun to read to him now. And said that his children are the storytellers, and he is the audience.

The Currys are a very religious family. In fact, religion played a huge part in Steph’s upbringing. Incidentally, he first met his wife Ayesha Alexander in a church. Steph’s parents, Sonya and Dell Curry played a huge part in his success on and off the court.

Dell Curry played 16 seasons in the NBA as a shooting guard like his son Stephen Curry. So Curry and his siblings saw what it is like to be in the best league in the world early in their lives. In fact, Dell Curry paved the way for both his sons to enter into the league with his guidance. However, the Curry brothers had to do their work to earn their spot in the league.
