What’s it take to overcome the odds and change the game? That’s at the heart of the warm and revealing conversations between epic NBA sharpshooters—and father and son—Dell and Steph Curry in their Audible Original Heat Check. While Dell laid the groundwork, Steph later delivered a whole new era of jaw-dropping three-pointers from a time previously dominated by flying dunks. In these episodes, we hear how Steph experienced his life’s journey and how Dell saw it play out.
Get the inside story on how Steph went from an underrated short and slim kid to dominating the league as the “baby-faced assassin”. Find out about the ties Steph shares with superstar rival LeBron James, who was born in the same hospital in Akron, Ohio, and get the scoop on how Steph was on his way to becoming a New York Knick but ultimately became a legendary Golden State Warrior. But, above all, hear how family is everything for the Currys, and learn what Dell had to sacrifice in order for his children to succeed.
Audible also notes special guests such as Steph’s mother, Sonya, Muggsy Bogues, and agent Jeff Austin.
Both Dell and Steph have lived fascinating lives. After Dell played the role of sharpshooter in the 1990s, notably for the Charlotte Hornets, his son erupted on the scene in the 2000s. Steph Curry and Davidson College ran through the NCAA Tournament on a memorable run that got the nation’s attention. He then went on to an illustrious career with the Golden State Warriors, where he has won four NBA championships.
