It is this arrogance that has made his career résumé one of the finest in a long time. Living up to his nickname, the ‘Baby Face Assassin’, Curry often goes up against the big guns, fearlessly. In his finals clashes with LeBron James, the two had a fair share of heated moments. Despite being the smaller guy in stature, Curry never backed down. Moreover, knowing he is the greatest shooter on the floor, Curry acts like it on the court.

His ability to tune in is what makes him truly dangerous in any form of the game. Curry isn’t afraid to step on to a challenge. While in the game, there isn’t anything humble about him. Steph shoots the look-away threes, talks trash, and sometimes even gets up right into the players.
