The real-life Curry probably won't be having much time coming up to improve his drives, fairway shots and short game, however. The Warriors have their first preseason game at 8:30 p.m. ET on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers and will tip off their regular season at 10 p.m. ET on Oct. 18 against the Lakers as well.
