Stephen Curry is seen as one of the most recognizable athletes in the world. He has transcended basketball with his 3-point shooting, creating an NBA where perimeter play is necessary to win games.
This is a new product for Curry, whose net worth is $100.4 million, according to Forbes. He has a big endorsement deal with Under Armour and signed an extension deal with them that will extend into his retirement.
In 2017, Curry formed a company called ‘SC30,' which manages his investments, brand partnerships and philanthropic ventures.
