Classic Photos of Stephen Curry

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry will be named the NBA’s Most Valuable Player for the second year straight in 2016. His dominant season came in a year when the Warriors surpassed the 1995–96 Chicago Bulls’ single-season win record, going 73–9. Curry becomes the 11th player in NBA history to win back-to-back MVP awards, joining LeBron James, Steve Nash and Tim Duncan as the players to accomplish that feat since 2000. Here's a look at "The Baby Faced Assassin" through the years.​
