[Saba Sports News] Stephen Curry, widely regarded as the greatest shooter in NBA history, has not only excelled on the basketball court but has also built a massive brand through commercial appearances and television cameos.
One of his memorable cameos was on the show ‘Ballers,’ where he appeared alongside Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and his wife, Ayesha Curry, in the Season 3 opener in 2017. In the episode, The Rock tries to sign Curry as a client and arranges a meeting with him while the Currys are on vacation. The cameo features Curry playfully telling Ayesha about joining the mile-high club while The Rock discusses building a basketball division around a star like Curry.
Stephen Curry’s relationship with Ayesha has been a high-profile one for years, with the couple not shying away from expressing their love on camera. They first met during their junior year of high school at a church youth group and began dating a few years later before getting married in 2011. They have three children together, building a strong family.
Beyond his personal life, Stephen Curry has become a global brand. He’s considered one of the most popular NBA athletes of the last decade, with some arguing he may even surpass LeBron James in popularity.
Curry has earned millions from his NBA career, and his partnership with Under Armour has further bolstered his wealth. Despite challenges in the sneaker market, Curry’s billion-dollar contract with Under Armour puts him on the path to becoming the third NBA billionaire, following Michael Jordan and LeBron James.
