Stephen Curry. Three-time champion. Two-time Most Valuable Player. Perennial All-Star. All-time great shooter…Lacrosse player?

That's right. The Golden State Warriors star tried his hand at lacrosse recently, showing his “skills” off with the Arizona State University Women's lacrosse team.

I think it's safe to say Stephen Curry did not miss his calling as a lacrosse star.

Thankfully, he chose the basketball route, and now we're enjoying one of the best players in NBA history.

Curry is having one of the best seasons of his illustrious career, averaging 28.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.2 steals over 34.2 minutes per game. He is also shooting 49.5 percent from the floor, 45.2 percent from 3-point range and 92 percent from the free-throw line en route to his sixth straight All-Star appearance.

Amazingly enough, Curry's numbers are not all that far off from his historically great 2015-16 campaign when he won his second consecutive MVP award and led Golden State to a record-setting 73-win season that ultimately ended in a seven-game finals loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

If Curry were not currently playing on the same team as Kevin Durant, he would probably be receiving a lot more consideration for a third MVP award, as this is likely the second-best year of his 10-year NBA tenure.

The Warriors have now won 13 of their last 14 games to improve to 38-15 overall on the season, good for the top spot in the Western Conference standings. This recent run of dominance comes after a stretch in which the Dubs went just 16-13, causing many to wonder if Golden State was in fact done winning championships.
