Description
The first official graphic novel from NBA superstar Stephen Curry, who overcame the odds to become one of the greatest basketball players of all time!
Stephen Curry is considered one of the-if not the-greatest shooters of all time. But his road to greatness was filled with plenty of bumps and obstacles. Coaches and players always told him he was too small and too short to be truly great.
Even when Curry declared his eligibility for the NBA, a scouting report noted that he "lacks great height, length or strength, and possesses below average lateral quickness...making him a potential defensive liability."
Proving all of his doubters wrong, today Stephen Curry is a four-time NBA Champion, two-time league MVP, and Finals MVP winner.
Read all about Curry's underdog story and meteoric rise to becoming a Sports Superhero-brought to life by illustrator Damion Scott's vibrant and dynamic art!
