Stephen Curry On How Kobe Bryant “Bust His A**” When He First Joined The NBA

Stephen Curry has been at the top level of his game long enough to get all the NBA fans excited whenever he makes an appearance off that court to speak about his game or about how his journey started.

Steph made his debut in the NBA in the 2009-2010 season. He has been with the Golden State Warriors ever since. Making a name for himself for one team over the long span of 12 years has certainly made him one of the very few players who value loyalty as much as the winning mentality.

The eight-time NBA All-Star has won 3 NBA championships with the Warriors and hopes to fight for his 4th with the team this season. Although it has not been an exceptional season for Curry so far, the Warriors stand strong on 2nd in the Western Conference.?
