Informative yet endearing and inspirational
I really enjoyed this book. Steph Curry is one of my favorite basketball players so getting to learn more about him from somewhere other than Wikipedia or ESPN was a nice change. I really liked how the book was laid out, it explained Curry's playing strategies and how he developed them in a clear, simple manner, and told the story of his life alongside of those strategies. There were several video links throughout the book, mostly to interviews and footage of Steph playing, and those really added to the entertainment factor of the book and it gave me a nice break from reading the text. The book itself is pretty short, so I was able to finish it in a few hours. The writer writes in a way that makes the book easy to read; the sentences aren't too long but they aren't too short either. It was really inspiring to read Curry's story, how he went from being a scrawny kid to a talented basketball player. Seeing Curry's increasing success due to his diligence and determination, it has inspired me to work harder at my own profession in hopes that I can make it on a big scale level.I would definitely recommend this book to any fans of Steph Curry, basketball fans in general, or really just anyone who wants to read an inspirational biography. I actually did end up recommending the book to my brother who loves Steph Curry, and he's interested in it!

Didn't feel like anything was left out
I think this book did an amazing job at telling all their is to know about Stephen Curry. When I first opened the book, I was just skimming through it to see what types of things were in it and was planning on fully reading it later, but I ended up reading the whole book instead of skimming. It's structured perfectly and I don't even know what part I can say is the most entertaining or most informative because every part of the book is great. The videos that are included with the drills, the storytelling of some of Steph's games, the consistent comments about his weight and how he made progress with it, this is a pretty good book & I learned a lot about Stephen Curry. I highly recommend this book if you're a Stephen Curry fan or even if you're not.

Basketball star Stephen Curry: How did he get to be an NBA Star
This is a very good book that details the life of Stephen Curry and what it took to make him a superstar in the NBA.He started as a short kid and growing to a decent, trained and practiced himself into becoming one of the top NBA stars of all time.The book looks at his history from high school through the NBA, his stats, records, awards, his determination and how he led the Golden State Warriors to 3 consecutive championships and more.Most impressive were the links that showed videos and his training regimen. Everything from how to move the ball to strength training was either covered in complete detail or linked to videos.This is a good book for those looking to play pro basketball, as it shows the amount of work required to get body and mind into shape.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Steve James' account of Stephen Curry's rise to being one of the best players in the NBA. The book outlines how his shooting technique was developed, his early life, and workout regimen which is something I have been wanting to know for a while. I love Steph Curry and felt like I knew him a lot better after reading this. Good read, highly recommended.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Stephen Curry
I thoroughly enjoyed reading Stephen Curry: A Sharpshooter's Journey To The NBA & Beyond. I have loved basketball since I was a child, I love playing it and I love watching it! I recognized the name Stephen Curry, but I did not know anything about him, that is why I decided to check this one out.Not only does this book share Steph's journey, there is a chapter devoted to shooting drills and exercises, and a chapter about motivational lessons. I can relate to the necessity of motivation in my life, because I had a difficult childhood. But the best chapter in this book was chapter 4 about Family & Faith. I am a very spiritual person who devoted my life to Jesus at the age of 20. I was so happy to read about his relationship with his family and God.Overall, this book is wonderful! I highly recommend it for anyone!

A well written book about Steph Curry
This book was really, really good. Steph Curry has long been my NBA idol. Coming up the way he did, and fighting through the adversity on and off the court, yet still maintaining his unselfishness truly inspires me.The book was beautifully written, no grammatical errors and everything flows nicely. Made for a nice little read. :)P.S. On a personal note, I found that his faith as a Christian to be perhaps the most inspiring thing about his life.
