Steph Curry, 36, has four children with wife Ayesha, namely Riley Elizabeth (13), Ryan Carson (8), Cannon (7) and newborn Caius (month old).
Whenever possible, ‘Chef Curry’ brings his kids during his games as well as other off-court activities that he and his wife are engaged in.
Meanwhile, just as he is making sure that he is there for his kids, Steph Curry performed solidly in his 15th season in the NBA.
The Warriors struggled collectively and missed the playoff but the 10-time All-Star posted steady numbers of 26.4 points, 5.1 assists and 4.5 rebounds in 74 games to earn a spot in the All-NBA Third Team. He was also named the NBA’s 2024 Clutch Player of the Year.
Steph Curry excited to play for Team USA at Olympics
Just as he enjoys looking after his children, another of the things Steph Curry is excited about doing these days is preparing for his tour of duty with Team USA at the Paris Olympic Games later this year.
There he will try to win his first-ever Olympic gold medal, in addition to the two he won in the World Cup in 2010 and 2014.
He will be part of a star-studded team that also features LeBron James and Anthony Davis (LA Lakers), Kevin Durant and Devin Booker (Phoenix). Jayson Tatum and Jrue Holiday (Boston), Joel Embiid (Philadelphia), Tyrese Haliburton (Indiana), Bam Adebayo (Miami), Anthony Edwards (Minnesota) and Kawhi Leonard (LA Clippers).
In a report that came on the FIBA website, Steph Curry spoke about his excitement and significance of being part of Team USA for the Paris Olympics, saying:
“I’m beyond excited. I played in two World Cup teams, I’ve had that international experience. But in 2016 and 2021, I missed it. So, I’m excited about this opportunity.”
He added:
“I’m 36 now and I don’t know if I’ll have another one so this is definitely the year.”
Team USA will begin their Olympic bid from Group C with Serbia, South Sudan and the country that will be coming out of the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Puerto Rico. Competition will take place from July 27 to Aug. 11.
