Stephen Curry: 10 surprising facts you probably didn't know

#4 Nike's $14 billion mistake

Most of the fans don't know that Curry donned Nike shoes early in his career and it was only in 2013 that he switched to Under Armour. But not before Nike pitched him the infamous contract.

Not only did they misspelled his name as Stephon, but they also didn't care to customize the power point presentation for Curry that was originally meant for Kevin Durant. To makes matters worse, many of the top executives did not show up to the meeting. This was when Stephen Curry decided to leave Nike.

#3 Stephen is his middle name

Many of the fans assume that Stephen is Curry's first name. However, along with the sharpshooting ability, he also shares his name with his father. His father is named Wardell Stephen Curry I, because of which he is called Dell Curry. While his son Wardell Stephen Curry II is referred to as Stephen in the NBA.
