Warriors G STEPH CURRY is “simultaneously rooted in the present” and “also planting seeds for the future” as he begins thinking of his long-range plans, according to Ron Kroichick of the S.F. CHRONICLE.

Curry “owns ambitions beyond basketball.” Witness his many civic and business pursuits, including “trying to improve the lives of Oakland school𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren … and working to combat malaria … and lobbying to keep public school meals in the federal budget … and seeking to diversify golf, his second sport … and representing other athletes under the Curry Brand.”

Curry acknowledged that he is “nowhere near deciding” if he is truly interested in a second career in politics, partly because he would need his wife AYESHA to “sign off on it.” Curry also “understands the country’s polarizing political climate.” Eat. Learn. Play., the foundation he and Ayesha started in 2019, has “raised and invested” more than $70M, distributed more than 25 million meals, poured $6.4M into literacy programs and refurbished 18 school playgrounds in Oakland.

Curry expects the foundation’s mission to “become ‘our life’s work.’” It is a “challenging balancing act” between basketball, family, philanthropy and business, though he “acknowledged his leadership team handles most of the off-court work.” Curry earns an estimated $50M annually in endorsements. He also has a production company, Unanimous Media (S.F. CHRONICLE, 6/28).
