As the NBA’s brief offseason rolls on, players have embraced the chance to celebrate Thanksgiving without the usual holiday game schedule. This year, stars across the league have taken to social media to share what they’re grateful for, eagerly anticipating what the next season will bring. Among them, Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry stood out with his heartfelt message on Instagram. At 32, Curry penned an extensive note, thoughtfully enumerating everything he is thankful for. He expressed gratitude for his family, teammates, fans, and the unwavering support that fuels his drive on and off the court. With a spirit of reflection and optimism, Curry’s message resonated deeply with his followers, embodying the true essence of Thanksgiving.
Thankful today and every day. Ups and down. All times. Behind these amazing smiles, there’s so much to be thankful for,” Curry wrote. However, the three-time NBA champion accepted that everyone has room to grow and many lessons to learn. He thanked Ayesha Curry – his wife and best friend.
He mentioned his children, and how grateful he is to have become a parent, aware that his children let him appreciate the beauty in life. “Thankful God has blessed me beyond belief and my ultimate goal is to praise and honour him in all I do”. Curry, like everyone else, agreed that 2020 has been “wild”, but one can learn to appreciate the bad and good times.
Ayesha too shared multiple photos from the same photo on Instagram. “Last one… I just love them!” she wrote after posting a series of photos, each featuring Curry or her three children. Throughout the pandemic, both Curry and Ayesha have chosen Instagram to share glimpses of their lives, often doting over their children or each other.
The couple has also donated throughout the past few months, providing COVID-19 relief for surrounding areas. Curry started with COVID-19 awareness posts while moving to support the Black Lives Matter movement following George Floyd’s death. Both of them also chose to support Kamala Harris and Joe Biden for the US Election, campaigning online before election day.
