Curry emphasized that unlike some athletes who quickly move into broadcasting roles, he plans to take a more measured approach. He mentioned NFL legend Tom Brady, who spent a year away from football before becoming Fox’s lead game analyst. Curry stated,

I would be more patient,

highlighting his desire to carefully consider his next steps rather than rushing into a new career.

He added,

I think about what would be the right opportunity for me, ’cause anything that I do, I want to be all in on it,

and also noted the importance of exploring different paths by

doing your homework on the different pathways and options that might be available.

Experience in Media During Playing Career

While still active in the NBA, Curry has already gained experience in the media industry through his company, Unanimous Media, founded in 2018. This production company has been involved in several sports documentaries, such as Underrated, which tells the story of Curry’s journey from an underestimated college basketball player at Davidson College to one of the NBA’s greatest stars.
