The Golden State Warriors are feeling the absence of Stephen Curry more than ever this season. Even at 38, the four-time NBA champion remains a cornerstone for the team, highlighting both his enduring greatness and the challenges facing the roster.
Curry's influence is undeniable, and while his eventual departure might signal a lengthy rebuild for the Warriors, fans can breathe easy for now. In a recent chat with The Athletic, Curry made it clear he's not ready to hang up his sneakers just yet.
Curry's Passion Keeps Him Going
"When I'm on the court, it's pure joy," Curry shared. "The competition, the camaraderie, chasing something meaningful - that's what fuels me. I don't see that stopping anytime soon."
Despite battling injuries reminiscent of his early career days, Curry's performance remains stellar. Averaging 27.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.1 steals, and 4.5 three-pointers per game, he's shooting an impressive 46.8% from the field and 39.1% from three-point range, according to Basketball Reference.
While Curry might not match LeBron James' longevity, he's committed to enduring the physical demands of the NBA as long as his competitive spirit burns bright.
