Life’s been better than good for Stephen Curry. But that doesn’t mean the Warriors star doesn’t have some regrets during the meteoric rise of his 10-year NBA career.
OK, maybe just one.
Curry now wishes the world wasn’t introduced to his young daughter Riley during the 2015 Western Conference playoffs. His adorable girl may have stolen the show during Curry’s postgame interview, but it may have come at a price.
“One thing I do technically regret in terms of how fast this all came is when I brought Riley on the podium,” Curry told David Dennis Jr. of The Undefeated, who is also a long-time friend and former Davidson College classmate. “I didn’t know how much that would blow up and how much of a splash she (would make).
“If I could take that one back, I probably would, just because my goal is just to give my kids the best chance at success and at seeing the world in the proper way,” Curry added. “Trying to give our kids the best chance to be successful and have a normal life in terms of treating people the right way, having respect, not getting too bigheaded and feeling like everything’s about them.”
Knowing what we know about Riley’s dad and the example he sets, we have a pretty good feeling the girl’s going to be just fine.
