In the NBA, the number a player chooses is almost as important as the team that selects you in the draft. The number on the uniform will represent the image of the player throughout their history. It represents the stamp that he will leave on the league. Of course, we are referring to the case of players called to be great stars.
Just as Michael Jordan is remembered for number 23, Kobe Bryant for number 24, Magic Johnson for number 32 or Dirk Nowitzki for number 41; 30 will always be associated with Stephen Curry. He has used this number throughout his entire college career and in all of his seasons in the NBA. Now that is being faithful to a number.
Curry has always used this number and for him the reason is quite simple. This number has a familiar meaning. His father Dell Curry wore the same number during his 16 seasons in the NBA. When he played with the Utah Jazz, Charlotte Hornets, Milwaukee Bucks and Toronto Raptors, Dell Curry always wore number 30.
This marked his son Steph, who has carried this figure since his university days at Davidson. In only three tournaments has the two-time NBA MVP not worn this number. Every time he was representing the United States. The first occasion was in the 2007 U19 World Cup when he wore the 5; At the 2010 FIBA World Cup he wore number 11, while at the 2014 FIBA World Cup he wore number 4.
Seth Curry, Stephen’s younger brother, has also worn the number 30 in his internships with the Sacramento Kings and the Dallas Mavericks.
Very soon the number 30 will not be able to be worn by any Golden State Warriors player, because when Curry retires, that number will be inducted into the team’s Hall of Fame.
