The Golden State Warriors could be completely different if the 2009 NBA Draft hadn’t happened exactly as it did. They drafted Stephen Curry, the team’s superstar guard, the renowned leader of their dynasty, and the greatest shooter of all time with the 7th overall selection.
However, if it were up to Steph’s parents, he wouldn’t have ended up in Oakland.
Per NBC Sports’ John Schrock, the couple didn’t want their son playing in Golden State. Dell said the fit wasn’t there.
“We just thought his game fit a better team, a better scenario,” Dell Curry said.
