Stephen Curry Game Worn ‘NBA vs. WNBA 3-Point Challenge’ Icon Edition Complete Uniform | Winner

This ‘Icon Edition’ complete uniform was worn by Stephen Curry on February 17, 2024, during the WNBA vs NBA 3-Point Challenge against Sabrina Ionescu at the 2024 State Farm All-Star Saturday Night. 

In a highly anticipated face-off during the NBA All-Star Weekend, basketball legends Stephen Curry and Sabrina Ionescu, renowned for their exceptional shooting skills, competed against each other in a special head to head 3-Point Shootout. Curry, embracing the challenge from the current WNBA 3-Point Contest champion, helped create what was one of the most eagerly awaited shooting showdowns in the event's history.

Ionescu tallied a remarkable 26 points, matching the top score from the earlier NBA 3-Point Contest. Curry, needing an extraordinary effort to secure the title, certainly delivered. Starting with a decent 3 out of 5 shots on his first rack, he quickly heated up, impressively making all 5 shots on the second rack.

The 'Baby-Faced Assassin' showcased a stellar performance, hitting 13 of his last 15 shots, including all his crucial money balls. His outstanding final rack culminated in a score of 29, securing his win. 

Going Deeper | Stephen Curry

Selected by the Golden State Warriors as the 7th overall pick of the 2009 NBA Draft, Curry quickly emerged as an elite scoring and playmaking threat as a point guard. He averaged 17.5 points, 5.9 assists, and 4.5 rebounds and finished second in the Rookie of the Year award voting. Although Curry’s skillset and potential shined bright, the Warriors failed to make the playoffs in his first three seasons. This all changed after the Warriors drafted shooting guard Klay Thompson in 2011. Soon thereafter, Curry and Thompson emerged as the most dangerous shooting backcourt in the game, and were dubbed the ‘Splash Brothers’.

After two consecutive playoff appearances in 2012-2013 and 2013-2014, Curry and the Warriors finally broke through in the 2014-15 NBA Playoffs. The Warriors’ balanced offensive attack of Curry, Thompson, Draymond Green, and Andre Iguodala enabled them to defeat LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers for the franchise’s first championship since the 1974-1975 season. In addition, Curry was voted league MVP. As it turned out, the ‘Baby-Faced Assassin’ was just getting started.

Curry helped the Warriors win three more championships in 2017, 2018, and 2022. His career accomplishments include nine All-NBA selections, two MVPs, one Finals MVP, and two scoring titles. In 2021, Curry passed Ray Allen to become the all-time leader in three-pointers in NBA history. He is widely considered perhaps the greatest shooter and one of the best players of all time.
