Steph Curry, who is currently playing in his 16th NBA season, on Tuesday candidly spoke about his retirement ahead of the Golden State Warriors' highly anticipated Christmas Day matchup against LeBron James and the Lakers. In an interview with ESPN's Malika Andrews, Curry candidly acknowledged that he is nearing the end of his illustrious NBA career.

"More than I’ve probably had before,” Curry said on thinking about retirement. "I think it’s okay to accept and acknowledge that the end is near at whatever point only because it allows you to enjoy what’s happening right now.
"I think the more you talk about it, the more you acknowledge it, it levels up just the sense of urgency of the moment now."
