It has been the Summer of Steph, with Stephen Curry leading the unofficial NBA clicks counter (non-Cavaliers drama category) by doing everything from besting a few professional golfers at their own sport to vanquishing inflatable defenders in a version of basketball. We saw him lead a contingent of Golden State Warriors onstage to pick up an ESPY and watched him imitating LeBron James' dance moves at a wedding. The only place Curry hasn't shown up is in the chatter regarding next season's most valuable player contenders.
Curry didn't crack the top six in ESPN's Summer Forecast MVP rankings, falling behind Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kawhi Leonard, among others.
