Stephen Curry Articles - Page 75

The 2022-23 NBA season is suddenly almost a week old, with the Golden State Warriors beginning their title defense by proving they’re a legitimate threat to repeat and prompting major questions about their workable depth against playoff competition. Here are three hot takes from the Warriors’ 2-1 start to the regular season. 3. Jonathan Kuminga and […]

Steve Kerr spoke a lot in the preseason about the benefits of his team’s multiple roster timelines. Three games into the regular season, though, the “foundational six” has been the group driving the Golden State Warriors’ success, while the defending champions’ reserves and young players account for most of their team’s struggles. The sample size […]

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry often goes viral for his incredible highlight plays and pre-game routines. On Saturday, however, he was the talk of the sports world because of Clemson football head coach Dabo Swinney. The Clemson Tigers beat the Syracuse Orange in the contest, but it wasn’t easy as Swinney had to pull […]

After going down 21-10 with five minutes left to go in the third quarter, Dabo Swinney took a chance that, at least at the time, felt like it could re-shape the face of Clemson Football forever. After watching his quarterback, DJ Uiagalelei, throw two interceptions and lose a fumble in his 30th appearance for the […]

The most ballyhooed lineup in the NBA barely got on the floor last season as the Larry O’Brien Trophy hung in the balance, notching just 10 total minutes in the NBA Finals. Should the Golden State Warriors play deep into the playoffs once again, though, don’t be surprised if their five-man pool party gets a […]

Stephen Curry wasn’t always a stalwart defender. Size prevents him from being a true difference-maker on that end, and there are still times he’s targeted in pick-and-roll again and again—occasionally with great success—by opposing star ball handlers. But the Golden State Warriors’ franchise player certainly isn’t the liability on defense now that he was earlier […]

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry couldn’t get more hyped up after seeing his brother-in-law and former teammate Damion Lee save the Phoenix Suns against Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks. The Suns fell behind by as much as 22 points in the game and looked like they were on their way to another embarrassing […]

For the past several years, Stephen Curry has been the face of the Golden State Warriors. The 34-year-old has spent all 14 of his years in the NBA with the Warriors and his current contract that he signed in the 2021 off-season will carry him through the 2025-26 season. He will be 38 by the […]

The Golden State Warriors were barely done celebrating their latest championship before staking a forceful claim for another one. Maybe their blowout 123-109 win over the Los Angeles Lakers in the season opener on Tuesday isn’t a sign of what’s to come throughout 2022-23. Ring night can make the actual basketball being played seem more […]

The Golden State Warriors picked up win numero uno on opening night against the Los Angeles Lakers. But before that, the team got their rings from their 2021-22 championship run. It’s a moment very familiar to four-time NBA champion Stephen Curry, but one that represents a drastic career shift for teammate Andrew Wiggins. After their […]

Moses Moody seemed primed to be the Golden State Warriors’ top reserve behind Jordan Poole this season, his blend of size, shooting ability and two-way feel on the wing marking a seamless fit alongside the reigning champs’ “foundational six.” It’s still not too late for that to transpire, of course. On opening night of the […]

It was business as usual for Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors, as they opened their season with a casual walloping of the Los Angeles Lakers at home Tuesday night. The Warriors scored a 123-109 victory over LeBron James and company, and they did that in style from start to finish. Speaking of which, […]

The Golden State Warriors begin their NBA title defense Tuesday night at home again the Los Angeles Lakers. Before the game, the Warriors had their ring ceremony with Stephen Curry also giving a shoutout to Brittney Griner, who remains imprisoned in Russia.

On Tuesday, ClutchPoints premiered Episode 2 of its animated web series The Association, featuring Draymond Green ‘punching’ Jordan Poole. The show features NBA players as employees in an office, toiling away in their different branches. The NBA is a business, and ClutchPoints is taking that literally in the series, which is a parody of the […]

Stephen Curry is still at the top of his game as his 14th NBA go-around dawns. Not only did he lead the Golden State Warriors to a remarkable fourth championship in eight years last season, but did so while taking home NBA Finals MVP for the first time in his career. At 34, there’s an […]

Stephen Curry understands the repeater tax realities the Golden State Warriors are primed to face in 2023-24. If the defending champions repeat this season, though, the reigning Finals MVP is nevertheless adamant that his team’s longtime core should stick together. In a sprawling interview with Shayna Rubin of The Mercury News, Curry addressed the possibility […]

Klay Thompson has big plans this 2022-23 season, and it should excite not only Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors but also the whole fan base. In a Q&A with NBA.com, Thompson was asked about his expectations for the season. The Warriors sharpshooter didn’t hold back in expressing his personal goal, which is to […]

Ring night always makes it easy for the last vestiges of championship afterglow to outshine importance of the actual task at hand. There’s a chance that tendency comes to fruition for the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night, when they welcome the Los Angeles Lakers to Chase Center for the 2022-23 season opener. But the […]

Real basketball is finally here, and not a moment too soon for the Golden State Warriors. An otherwise banner offseason for the reigning champions was marred by Draymond Green’s vicious punch to Jordan Poole, calling confidence of the Warriors’ title defense into major question less than two weeks before it officially tipped off. Golden State, […]

So much for getting punched by Draymond Green complicating Jordan Poole’s long-term future with the Golden State Warriors.  According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Poole is on verge of signing a four-year, $140 million extension that will keep him in the Bay through 2026-27. Jordan Poole is finalizing a 4-year, $140 million contract extension with the […]

The NBA preseason is the perfect time to work out the kinks. That apparently goes for celebrations as well. Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry did exactly that after flexing his made three in their final preseason game against the Denver Nuggets. Check out Steph Curry with a rare stumble after a made three: Steph […]

It looks like Luka Doncic, LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic are facing serious competition when it comes to the NBA MVP battle. Apparently, one unexpected contender is making waves in the betting scene. According to FanDuel, New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson is the “most-bet” player to win the award–even ahead […]

After struggling for much of the 2021-22 season, the New Orleans Pelicans–ninth in the Western Conference with a 36-46 record–finished the season strong, pushing the league-leading Phoenix Suns to six games in the first round of the playoffs, thanks in no small part to trade deadline acquisition CJ McCollum’s contributions. The Pelicans are on the […]

Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic has already cemented himself as one of the greatest players in NBA history amid a highly successful run in which he has won back-to-back NBA MVPs. While Jokic is now going for an NBA MVP three-peat, there are a number of other superstars ready to stake their claim as the […]

The Golden State Warriors have laid the hammer down on Draymond Green. Well, somewhat. This is after head coach Steve Kerr announced on Tuesday that the Warriors veteran will be fined for his actions against teammate Jordan Poole. Draymond, however, will not be serving any form of suspension. As it turns out, Green and Poole […]

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry still can’t believe that he is now a four-time champion. Winning three titles is already incredible, but four is just a different kind of special. Curry hinted as much when he joined the CBS Sports broadcast crew during the Warriors’ preseason game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday. […]

Bob Myers is clearly a huge Stephen Curry fan. I mean, why wouldn’t he be? After all, Steph has made him look good as the Golden State Warriors general manager for all these years. On Tuesday, Myers joined the broadcast for the Dubs’ preseason matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. When it was time to […]

Now that the dust has somewhat settled in the aftermath of Draymond Green’s now-infamous fight with Jordan Poole, it’s time for the Golden State Warriors to start healing. The team has to move past this ugly incident as soon as possible as they look to start their title defense in a week’s time. For his […]

The NBA game has been gravitating towards being more perimeter-oriented and Andre Drummond appears to have got the memo. The Bulls center did his best Stephen Curry impersonation in a preseason game between the Bulls and Toronto Raptors on Sunday. Drummond finished a perfect 3-3, just like Stephen Curry, from the three-point line. The Bulls […]

Stephen Curry proved last season that he is still at the top of his game when he led the Golden State Warriors to their fourth championship in the past eight years. Curry finally took home his elusive NBA Finals MVP award, which was pretty much the only award Curry’s trophy case didn’t have. Curry and […]

Bob Myers and Steve Kerr made clear on Thursday they would rely on Stephen Curry’s leadership in wake of the incident involving Draymond Green and Jordan Poole. The Golden State Warriors’ franchise player subsequently expressed comfort shouldering that onus, insisting he would do all he can to ensure his team’s quest for back-to-back titles wouldn’t […]

Stephen Curry had just finished answering yet another question about Draymond Green “forcefully striking” Jordan Poole at practice 24 hours earlier. Then the four-time MVP let out a long sigh, tapped his fingers on the podium and surveyed the media room at Chase Center, sensing it was time to end Wednesday’s interview on terms set […]

NBA insider Chris Haynes reported on Wednesday that there has been a noticeable change in Jordan Poole’s attitude since training camp started for the Golden State Warriors. Apparently, this change in attitude was something that was “building up” and that it may have played a major factor in Poole’s shocking altercation with Draymond Green during […]

Stephen Curry was too busy practicing with the Golden State Warriors on Thursday afternoon to tune into the second leg of highly anticipated matchups between Victor Wembanyama and Scoot Henderson, the consensus top-two prospects in the 2023 NBA draft. Still, the reigning Finals MVP saw everything he needed during Tuesday’s instant-classic game to come up […]

There are no sacred cows for Draymond Green. The Golden State Warriors star does not know when to back down, and that’s perhaps best underscored by the fact that he once had a beef with the greatest shooter of all time who also happens to be his teammate in the form of Stephen Curry. This […]

The Golden State Warriors have cemented themselves among the NBA’s best franchises over the past half-decade or so, with many of the greatest Warriors considered as the NBA’s best all-time players as well. After not winning a title between 1975 before 2015, the Dubs have passed the Chicago Bulls for the third-most titles in the […]

The Golden State Warriors reached the basketball mountaintop again last season, re-planting their flag as perhaps the best dynasty in modern NBA history by winning their fourth championship in eight years. Stephen Curry was the driving force behind his team’s quietly dominant playoff run and comeback win over the Boston Celtics with the Larry O’Brien […]

The Golden State Warriors enter the 2022-23 NBA season having reclaimed their spot on top of the NBA, winning their fourth title over the past decade after their triumph over the Boston Celtics. However, with a new season comes new challenges, and it appears the Warriors are getting doubted yet again. In the 2022-23 version […]

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry is probably regretting now that an old photo of him trying youth football is widely available online. That is after Peyton Manning and Eli Manning mocked him over it during his ManningCast appearance on Monday night. Curry appeared for the telecast of Monday Night Football between the San Francisco […]
