Stephen Curry’s legacy stands alongside the Golden State Warriors’ greatest. A four‑time NBA champion, two‑time MVP and arguably the most lethal shooter in history, Curry has helped redefine basketball with his three-point shooting and elite ball handling. His long tenure with the Warriors, filled with record‑breaking performances and global recognition, has also cemented his place as an NBA icon.

Aside from the many individual accolades, Curry has also been fortunate to share locker rooms with several players, including fellow stars like Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. He has also enjoyed the luxury of being teammates with a member of his family – Damion Lee.

Lee, Curry’s brother-in-law and former Warriors teammate, was part of Golden State’s 2022 championship team and is married to Curry’s younger sister, Sydel. Now with the Phoenix Suns, the 6-foot-5 guard recently sparked reactions on Instagram after debuting a noticeably new look, cutting off his signature dreadlocks.

Among those who caught wind of his new appearance was Curry himself, who responded to a photo of the transformation with a simple five-word comment: “Let me get a feature.”

Lee joined the Warriors in 2018 and played a steady role in the rotation over the next several seasons. While he didn’t play major minutes during the 2022 championship run, his contributions as a floor spacer and locker room presence were valued.

Now with the Suns and coming off a season disrupted by injury, Lee is eyeing a bounce-back year in 2025-26.
