About this listen
Stephen Curry has been making headlines on and off the court this week, marked by both personal milestones and public displays of emotion. News broke through both Sports Illustrated and Times of India that Curry’s family suffered a deep loss, as his maternal grandmother, Candy Wyms Adams, passed away on July 28. Sonya Curry, Stephen’s mother, posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram recalling her mother’s warmth and wisdom. This loss casts light on the recent cryptic anniversary post where Steph hinted life had “been throwing some jabs” lately—a poignant revelation that now echoes with fresh clarity given the family’s grief.
As for family life, Curry and his wife Ayesha celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary on July 30 in a flurry of affectionate social media posts. The couple, still widely considered a power couple, shared both sweet and cheeky moments, including a photo that quickly went viral and sent social media into a frenzy, as reported by Total Pro Sports. Fans and celebrities alike filled both their Instagram feeds with congratulations and messages of support, with Ayesha’s post featuring a playful tone and a candid revelation about their bond. Steph’s own post was more introspective, openly acknowledging the year’s difficulties but affirming the strength he draws from their partnership. This openness has struck a chord, reminding the public that NBA superstars are not exempt from the ordinary—and sometimes extraordinary—trials of life.
On the business side, Curry is gearing up for the 2025 Curry Brand World Tour, a major international marketing push for his basketball gear line with Under Armour. Anticipation had been building for a duo tour with De’Aaron Fox, but as detailed by Times of India and others, Fox suddenly withdrew just days ago. That leaves Curry as the sole headline act for marquee stops in Chongqing, Hong Kong, Tokyo, and San Francisco, and puts more of the brand spotlight squarely on his singular presence. Social chatter has noted this could be a defining year for the Curry Brand’s global strategy, with the tour and the first-ever “Curry Con” basketball culture event set to expand Steph’s business imprint in Asia and the US.
In the background, the ever-present discussions about his NBA legacy continue. A minor but buzzworthy discussion arose after Richard Jefferson opined that Curry’s on-court dominance may be both a blessing and a hurdle for rising teammate Jonathan Kuminga, a point picked up by NBA Analysis in late July. For now, though, the public’s attention is firmly on Curry’s personal resilience, his enduring marriage, and how he handles family tragedy while managing the global ambitions of a sports icon.
