“Dude is shooting shots from the street!” – Stephen Curry’s shooting skills were evident even at age 7, former NBA top shooter says… More details below 👇👇👇
“Dude was draining shots from the sidewalk!” – Stephen Curry’s unreal shooting talent was clear as day even when he was just 7, says a former NBA sharpshooter.
Former NBA player Eddie Johnson shares a story about playing one-on-one with a young Stephen Curry, who showcased his incredible shooting.
Former Phoenix Suns forward Eddie Johnson on PHNX Sports recently shared a story about when he played a game of one-on-one with seven-year-old young blood, Stephen Curry in his driveway. Johnson was impressed by Curry’s shooting skills, which were almost good enough to beat him.
Steph Curry’s natural shooting talent was evident even at a young age. He was able to shoot from a long distance and keep up with professional players like Johnson, who played in the NBA for 17 years.
Johnson eventually won the game by using his size and strength to his advantage, but he was still impressed by Curry’s skills. Curry’s father, Dell Curry, had an inkling that Johnson would struggle to beat his son on their home rim.
Today, Steph Curry is a 4x champion, 2x MVP, 10x All-Star, and a recently crowned Olympic gold medalist, and is considered one of the greatest shooters in NBA history who, according to analysts, revolutionized the way the game is played. Warrior fans would be hoping to see more of him when they open their season with a home game against the Sacramento Kings.
Stephen Curry unfazed by Warriors’ lack of offseason upgrades
The Golden State Warriors had failed to make the playoffs last season, which then made offseason improvements crucial for the franchise. Despite missing out on Paul George and Lauri Markkanen as well as the exit of Splash Bro, Klay Thompson, Steph Curry reportedly remains unconcerned about the team’s current roster and lack of a second All-Star.
This confidence is surprising, given the Warriors’ struggles, which was visible to all last season, and their reliance on Curry, who is now approaching father time at 36 years old. The team’s performance, according to stats, significantly drops when Curry is either absent or not playing at his best, thus highlighting the need for a strong supporting cast.
The Baby Faced Assassin’s trust in the front office is expected, but the team’s situation suggests otherwise. However, if the Dubs make a slow start to the season, his confidence may quickly fade, hence, the need for a second All-Star to support him and lead the Warriors back to playoff contention in the hotly contested Western Conference.
