SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: Basketball was considered a big man’s sport until Steph Curry sent the world into meltdown with his marvelous ability to dominate the court. Widely regarded as the ‘Greatest Shooter of All Time’, the Golden State Warriors star, 35, truly revolutionized basketball by introducing his signature three-point shot.

Curry has accomplished all there is to achieve on the basketball court. The shooter has won 4 championships, 2 MVPs, and 1 Finals MVP. Apart from this, he also holds the record for scoring the most numbers of three-pointers in NBA history. Beside his on-court prowess, Curry is especially inspirational because of how far he's come with his non-typical basketball height. Steph Curry’s height has always been a raging topic of discussion in the NBA world and media.

Due to his exceptional on-court skills, Steph Curry’s height has always been a hot topic of discussion among NBA fans. While many claim that Curry is shorter than 6’ 2", he himself confirmed that he stands at an impressive 6 feet 2 inches (188 cm).

Steph Curry’s height surely makes him one of the smallest players in the league, which is filled with giants like Giannis Antetokounmpo (6ft 11in), Kevin Durant (6ft 11in), and LeBron James (6ft 10in). The craziest part is that Curry is the shortest player on his team. The only Warriors players that are even close to matching Steph Curry's height are Donte DiVincenzo (6' 4") and Ryan Rollins (6' 3"). The remainder of the Warriors are all 6' 5" or taller, with James Wiseman being the tallest at 7'0".

How did Steph Curry’s height affect his NBA Draft position?

Steph Curry’s height was one of the significant reasons which led to him not being picked earlier in the draft. He was the seventh overall pick in the 2009 NBA draft and has spent his entire professional career in Golden State. Curry was undoubtedly a lottery pick but when he first appeared on the list, he was just 6ft 2in, which wasn't very impressive and NBA scouts knew that it could be risky to take him. He was considered too short to play at the shooting guard position, which is why he made the transition to point guard. He still plays in the same position and has effortlessly been dominating the game.
