Over the last decade or so, Stephen Curry has been one of the very best players in the NBA, and some may argue he has been the best during that span.

He has ascended the ladder when it comes to his legacy, and now plenty of people feel he is one of the 10 greatest players in the history of basketball.

But one thing that makes the Golden State Warriors guard even more special is the fact that he’s one of the most likeable superstars in any sport.

Teammate Jonathan Kuminga elaborated on Curry’s personality and soul.

Some people stereotype NBA and NFL players as egomaniacs who are unfaithful to their wives or girlfriends, get in trouble with the law, and do not practice any gratitude.

That is a gross exaggeration, and Curry is proof.

One initiative he has launched has been aimed at combating the spread of malaria, especially overseas, and to do his part, he has donated three insecticide-treated mosquito nets for every successful 3-pointer to the United Nations Foundation’s Nothing But Nets campaign.

Curry also started the “Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation” that aims to combat childhood hunger and help children gain access to quality education.

On the court, his resume speaks for itself — four NBA championships, two scoring titles, and two regular season and NBA Finals MVP awards.

He and the Warriors are also credited with changing the league from one that was plagued by slowdown, stagnant offenses to one that emphasizes playing with pace, outside shooting, and ball and player movement.
