Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors is 34 years old and has been in the NBA for 13 years now.
He has achieved so much during his time in the league that fans would be understanding if he wasn’t performing as well lately.
But that clearly isn’t the case.
NBA Muse has crunched the numbers and compared Curry’s previous season with the present one and it’s obvious that Curry has gotten better this year.
Last season, he was averaging 25.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, 6.3 assists, and 4.5 three-pointers a game.
This season, however, he is posting 29.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 6.4 assists, and 5 three-pointers.

Compared to other seasons, this is his third-best year when it comes to his point total.
2022-23 also happens to be his greatest year in terms of rebounds.
It’s true that Curry has suffered his fair share of adversities this year, as a few injuries have slowed him down and his team has struggled to find a good rhythm and secure many wins.
But Curry has been electric from the start of the season and has remained the best part of the roster.
At this point, the chances of Curry and his Warriors returning to the Finals seem slim.
However, he has repeatedly proven that you can never count him nor his team out.
Even if the Warriors’ troubles continue into the postseason, no one can deny that Curry is easily one of the best players alive – and one of the greatest of all time.
Injuries are becoming more frequent for the four-time champion but his skill on the court isn’t diminishing.
