I’ve always believed that success for anyone is all about drive, dedication, and desire, but for me, it’s also been about confidence and faith.
Stephen Curry
It doesn’t matter where you come from, what you have or don’t have, what you lack, or what you have too much of. But all you need to have is faith in God, an undying passion for what you do and what you choose to do in this life, and a relentless drive and the will to do whatever it takes to be successful in whatever you put your mind to.
Stephen Curry
Drinking water is essential to a healthy lifestyle.
Stephen Curry
I want to thank God, obviously for the health, for the talent He’s given me, for my family who supports me, for the things that basketball’s taught me on and off the court. For the people that I’ve been able to meet through the game of basketball.
Stephen Curry
To excel at the highest level – or any level, really – you need to believe in yourself, and hands down, one of the biggest contributors to my self-confidence has been private coaching.
Stephen Curry
Sometimes people make it seem like you have to have certain prerequisites or a crazy life story in order to be successful in this world. But the truth is you really don’t.
Stephen Curry
Honestly, I could care less about other people’s opinions about me.
Stephen Curry
I’ve been blessed with talents to play this game and been put on a stage to impact a lot of people. I don’t want to take that for granted.
Stephen Curry
I try to make it look easy, but the behind-the-scenes stuff is the challenge.
Stephen Curry
The vibe in our locker room is real energetic and fun and real personable, I think from Day 1. That gets you through a lot of tough times, where in hard times, it might be common nature for guys to do their own thing and split up and become silent.
Stephen Curry
You learn that there’s no right way to do it, no wrong way to do it. It’s just what you feel comfortable with, to trust that, and don’t let anybody box you in to a certain style of parenting or make you feel a certain way about what your kids do.
Stephen Curry
To be able to finish opportunities that I do get in the paint, that makes a difference.
Stephen Curry
I can’t jump the highest. I’m obviously not the biggest, not the strongest.
Stephen Curry
With all the travel we’re doing to cold-weather cities, your mind definitely starts to wander. It gets you away from the game. Even when you arrive in a city, you’re tempted to just sit in your hotel and rest. Sometimes it’s nice to just get out and walk around, to see what’s there.
Stephen Curry
My parents had us in church every Sunday, every Wednesday. It was more of a tradition at that point; I didn’t have a personal relationship with the Lord until I went to the altar call one Sunday, and the youth pastor told us to make a decision for ourselves.
Stephen Curry
We’re going to have to work. We’re going to have to play well. Nothing will be given to us.
Stephen Curry
I am pretty chill before games. Have a go-to routine that keeps me busy until we are ready to take the court so I’m not just sitting around anxious for the game.
Stephen Curry
My dad has kind of been the standard for me, he played 16 years in the league, and since I’ve been in the league, every year that I go through and deal with the scratches, the bumps and bruises, just the grind that it is to go through one NBA season.
Stephen Curry
The biggest thing is just routine. I think that’s the biggest correlation between golfers and basketball players.
Stephen Curry
FaceTime helps me a lot. I feel like I’m at home even though I’m not.
Stephen Curry
Someone did a graphic of me in my jersey, and Jordan, they dubbed him guarding me, and Kanye’s face was on both of us. That’s my favorite meme of all time – or so far to-date. I’m gonna have to get that blown up on my wall or something.
Stephen Curry
There are so many things we have to overcome in this life with Jesus, His work on the cross. He’s paid the ultimate price for us, so I’m proud to be a child of God.
Stephen Curry
For me, when you are have people wondering what is next, what is coming out, you are on the right track.
Stephen Curry
Shooting the ball is a part of the game. Everybody can shoot in their own way. Not everybody can make. But everybody can shoot.
Stephen Curry
I have fun out there on the court, smiling, laughing, trying to have good demeanor.
Stephen Curry
Your touch and your feel for the game is pretty much gone if you don’t work on it – at least get some shots up or dribble the ball.
Stephen Curry
You can play fast but not in a hurry. As a point guard, I can dictate that.
Stephen Curry
I’m very active on social media and see the huge impact it has on engaging with fans and being able to have a voice.
Stephen Curry
For me, I don’t want to cheat the game by saying, or kind of doing lip service by saying, I want to be the greatest ever. I want to be able to show it.
Stephen Curry
I’m not in the business of ranking or debating who is what.
Stephen Curry
I’m 6’3″” and 185 pounds on a good day, so I probably relate more to the casual fan who watches the game and is not super athletic, not this crazy monster of physical stature.
Stephen Curry
I’m just blessed, man, to be able to represent solidarity with the small schools I went to.
Stephen Curry
On the court, I want to try and get to the free-throw line a little more. And as a point guard, you can always get better at your decision-making and limiting your mistakes.
Stephen Curry
I expected to be a pretty good NBA point guard and hopefully win a championship. But MVP and all this stuff? Not really.
Stephen Curry
You have so much fun playing games. We all love basketball, so we never want the season to end, ’cause then it’s five months of sitting around and watching the playoffs.
Stephen Curry
That feeling is so intoxicating, walking off the court holding the Larry O’Brien trophy. So I just want to do that again.
Stephen Curry
Steak and Shake in Indianapolis is definitely the first stop when we hit that city.
Stephen Curry
I don’t like people looking at someone else’s image.
Stephen Curry
I shoot the ball so well that sometimes you fall in love with it and think it’ll get you out of certain situations.
Stephen Curry
It’s really annoying for me. That’s not what I’m playing for, to be the face of the NBA or to be this or that or to take LeBron’s throne or whatever.
Stephen Curry
I am not a BART regular but have taken it probably five times to and from the city with some of my teammates. Nice to just hop on the train and enjoy some of the views of the Bay Area while I’m out.
Stephen Curry
I always have an optimistic view, no matter what it is.
Stephen Curry
I like that Brita makes tap water taste good, so you don’t need to spend money or waste plastic with bottled water.
Stephen Curry
Whatever that means, however you got on that mountain, why not try to climb it? And do it in your own way.
Stephen Curry
Water is my drink.
Stephen Curry
Right after the draft, when I came out to Oakland, there was a press conference and a dinner with the owner, GM, and Coach Nelson. We did some sightseeing and some house searching the next day, but to be honest, I had no idea what I was doing. I tried to find a spot close to our gym, because I figured that’s where I’d spend most of my time.
Stephen Curry
I’ve been blessed in that regard through and through. So I’m just thankful for this opportunity to play the game that I love and share that with the world.
Stephen Curry
You know, I’m trying to chase rings, and that’s all I’m about. So that’s where the conversation stops for me.
Stephen Curry
I’ve taken countless shots in my life, so you know the ones when you’re in rhythm, with a perfect release, and it’s on track, that it’s going in.
Stephen Curry
Everybody asks if putting is like shooting free throws. It has a very similar kind of mindset. And it’s just you, the ball, and the target.
Stephen Curry
I think about the milestones from my childhood and what it will be like to watch our kids go through them. Taking Riley to her first day of school was a whirlwind. I can’t imagine what middle school is going to be like, and high school, and graduation.
Stephen Curry
It’s crazy how fast you get out of shape if you miss a couple days of action.
