Stephen Curry Admits He Wanted The New York Knicks To Draft Him: "I Absolutely Was Wanting To Go To The Knicks."

“I absolutely was wanting to go to the Knicks. The draft was in New York, it was my dad’s birthday, June 25th 2009. Had a lot of conversations with the GM of New York at the time who said if I was on the board, they’d picked me. So there’s a lot of hype because being in New York, I thought I was going to be a New York Knick. But they always be careful what you wish for, everything happened the way it was supposed to be, so I’m a Warrior.”

Curry clearly has no regrets about not going to New York, and made a name for himself with Golden State. But Curry got his chance to make history at New York. Last month, Curry broke the record for the most three-pointers made in NBA history, and he did against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden, with fellow legendary shooters Ray Allen and Reggie Miller in attendance.

How would Curry's career have gone if he had joined the New York Knicks? Perhaps he would have achieved a similar level of success had he joined the Knicks. But Curry will not be too concerned, given how much success he has had in his career so far, and will likely continue to have.
