      Grades 3-5 After the Golden State Warriors drafted basketball phenom Stephen Curry in 2009, he overcame early injuries, improved his skills, and helped them win the 2015 NBA championship. During the 201516 season, the Warriors earned an amazing record of 73 wins and 9 losses, while Curry set the NBA record for three-point shots (402) and became the first player ever to be named MVP by unanimous vote. Written in an accessible style, this Junior Biographies series title also includes information about Curry's family life and charitable works. The colorful pages offer a fair amount of information as well as many clearly reproduced photos and boxes featuring quotes and fast facts. While biographies of active athletes have a short shelf life, a reasonably up-to-date book on Curry is currently a staple for sports collections.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
