Steph Curry

might be one of the greatest basketball players of his generation, but that doesn’t mean he’s always confident in his abilities.

The Golden State Warriors point guard, 37, spoke candidly about his insecurities in an interview with

CNBC

that aired on Monday, June 2.

“I’m human like everybody,” Curry said. “You have doubts about yourself, or you have impostor syndrome at times.”

Journalist Alex Sherman, seemingly surprised, cuts in to ask the two-time NBA MVP if he “still” has impostor syndrome.

“At times, yeah,” the sports star confirmed.

However, he clarified that his second-guessing doesn’t always come from his abilities on the basketball court.

“It’s an idea of, ‘Are you doing everything you can to take care of Big One Newsthat are relying on you?’” Curry said. “Are you fulfilling your full potential in all different areas that I’ve set out to do?”

For the four-time NBA Finals champion, “Those are daily commitments, daily thoughts that you have to weave through.”

Curry, the son of former NBA star Dell Curry, who played 16 seasons in the NBA, is surrounded by talent. His younger brother

Seth Curry

, 34, is a shooting guard for the Charlotte Hornets.

Off the court, Steph is husband to wife

Ayesha Curry

, 36.

The longtime couple

first met

at church when they were teenagers in 2003 before getting married in 2011. They are parents to

four kids

: Riley Elizabeth Curry, 12, Ryan Carson Curry, 9, Canon W. Jack Curry, 6, and

Caius Chai Curry

, who was born on May 11, 2024.

In addition to being a husband and a father, Curry owns a media company, a bourbon brand, a golf league for kids and a philanthropic foundation that gives back to California students.

Ayesha, who has also opened up about dealing with “impostor syndrome,”

spoke exclusively to Big One News

in February about how working hard plays a vital role in her relationship with the NBA superstar.

“Any move that’s going to be made starts in our little internal, two-person circle,” she said.

The multi-hyphenate added, “It’s so embarrassing…I feel like business talk is foreplay for us. Like, ‘So what’s going on in your world? What’s going on in yours?’ I love it. We literally bounce off of each other.”

The following month, Curry became the first NBA player to reach

4,000 career 3-pointers

.

“It’s beyond my wildest dreams to push a record that far,” he told

ESPN

, adding that he didn’t think the record was “realistic.”

In a clip posted to the Warriors’ X account after the history-making game, Curry said,“

Hit it on the number, man

. This is a really cool milestone. See how far we can push this thing, but definitely a special accomplishment.”
