Got really emotional, started crying.\u201dStephen Curry added, \u201cMy dad’s showing the most emotion I’ve ever seen from him\u2026He basically stood up, was yelling, and gave me a big fist bump in the air.\u201dThe four time NBA champion continued, \u201cHe usually just sits with his chin in his hands, no emotion, whether we’re playing well, I have 40, or I have two points, he’s always real stoic,” he added. “That game, he just let loose, which is fun to see.”Things changed in Stephen Curry\u2019s life quickly as he was drafted by the Golden State Warriors in the first round as the 7th overall pick during the 2009 NBA Draft held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.After joining the Golden State Warriors, it did not take the NBA icon Stephen Curry too long to transform into one of the most legendary players that the world has ever seen.<\/p>\n
