Steph Curry is having another big year for the Golden State Warriors. In 33 games played thus far, the former back-to-back MVP is averaging 27.6 points on 47.0% shooting, 3.8 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.1 steals in 31.9 minutes per contest. Now in his 17th season in the NBA, Curry is once again leading the entire league in three-pointers, knocking down 4.5 triples per game on a 38.6% clip.

Standing by her husband’s side this year is Ayesha Curry, who is the mother of the Warriors superstar’s four kids. Ayesha Curry has been supporting Steph Curry since Day 1, with the two first crossing paths way before he established himself as the greatest shooter in NBA history.

Steph and Ayesha Curry first met in 2003 as teenagers at a church youth group in Charlotte, North Carolina. They started dating in 2008. They got married in 2011 after the 6-foot-2 point guard’s second season with the Warriors.

Since then, the couple have welcomed four children: Riley (13), Ryan (10), Canon (7) and Caius (1).
