American professional basketball player Stephen Curry plays for the NBA’s Golden State Warriors. Curry, who is recognized as one of the all-time greats in basketball and the best shooter in NBA history, is credited with altering the game by encouraging teams and players to take more three-pointers. He was chosen for the All-NBA team eight times, was twice named the NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP), won four NBA titles, and was also selected for the NBA Finals MVP Award and NBA All-Star Game MVP Award.
He was also an eight-time NBA All-Star and eight-time All-NBA selection, including four times on the first team. He played collegiate basketball with the Davidson Wildcats, where he established scoring records for Davidson and the Southern Conference in his career, twice won conference player of the year honors and set the NCAA record for most three-pointers made in a single season during his sophomore year.
With the seventh overall choice in the 2009 NBA Draft, the Warriors picked Curry. Curry won his first league MVP honor and guided the Warriors to their first title since 1975 in 2014–15. He made history the following year by becoming the first player to win the MVP award with a unanimous vote and leading the league in scoring with a shooting percentage of 50-40-90. In order to get to the 2016 NBA Finals, where they were defeated by the Cleveland Cavaliers in seven games, the Warriors shattered the mark for the most victories in an NBA season that year.
