Curry, 32, has definitely changed the game of basketball since his arrival to the league in 2009.
Most notably, Curry ushered in a prioritization around shooting the 3-ball. He is one of the most prolific 3-point shooters in NBA history.
The veteran has three of the four top spots for most 3-pointers made in a season. Curry knocked down a whopping a 402 triples during the 2015-16 season.
Of course, Curry’s sharpshooting isn’t just for individual stats. He’s earned two MVP trophies and three championships.
Curry has career averages of 23.5 points, 6.6 assists and 4.5 boards per game.
