Stephen Curry, fresh off winning Olympic gold, is finding solace after a challenging season with the Golden State Warriors. Reflecting on his year, Curry balances the joy of his achievements with his family and charity commitments. His fourth child, Caius Chai, was born in May, adding joy to a tumultuous year.

Curry recently signed a $62.6 million, one-year contract extension, ensuring his stay with the Warriors through the 2026-27 season. "Everything happens for a reason," Curry said, on his mixed-year experiences, including successes in the Olympics and disappointments in the NBA.

Despite a busy year, Curry continues his involvement with the Eat.Learn.Play. Foundation, hosting a charity golf event benefiting underprivileged children. The foundation, co-founded with his wife Ayesha, aims to raise $25 million over the next five years to support literacy programs for struggling readers in Oakland's schools.
