Steph Curry is in the middle of an event he hasn’t experienced before. The Golden State Warriors star is debuting in the Olympics with the USA’s men’s basketball team. Curry and his NBA superstar teammates are trying to give their country its fifth consecutive gold medal in the sport.
Curry is also experiencing a first on a personal level. He is celebrating his wedding anniversary without his wife, Ayesha Curry. The two-time NBA MVP, however, went on Instagram to show how much this day means to him:
“13 years in and still loving every minute of it my woman! @ayeshacurry
“July 30, 2011”

The love story between one of the NBA’s power couples is well-documented. They met in their teens in a church in North Carolina. Marcus Thompson’s “The Miraculous Rise of Steph Curry” detailed, via the basketball star’s sister, Sydel Curry, how the connection started:
“She would find him after church, barely say two words, and, like, walk away. That’s how she would flirt with him in a way. He clearly liked it. It left an impression.”
The impression was strong enough that five years after that fateful meeting, Steph Curry and Ayesha Curry started dating. They tied the knot in 2011 and a year later, Riley Curry joined the family. In May, this year, they welcomed a boy named Caius Chai on Instagram.
The Golden State Warriors’ franchise cornerstone is enjoying his life on and off the court.
