“With age comes wisdom.”
In the world of basketball, the above quote stands true for Stephen Curry. Often regarded as the greatest shooter in the history of the National Basketball Association (NBA), he is ageing like fine wine.
Fully aware that he is well over 35 years of age, the Golden State Warriors point guard has accepted that younger players will be faster and more agile than him. As a result, he has started working on other aspects of the game, with Curry’s sharpshooting skills improving with every passing day.
Having played for nearly 15 years, the American point guard has enjoyed a decorated career. Here are some of his most important achievements:
- Four-time NBA champion (2015, 2017, 2018, 2022)
- NBA Finals Most Valuable Player (2022)
- Two-time NBA Most Valuable Player (2015, 2016)
- Two-time NBA scoring champion (2016, 2021)
- NBA Sportsmanship Award (2011)
- Two-time gold medal winner at the FIBA World Cup (2010, 2014)
- 10-time NBA All-Star (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024)
- NBA All-Star Game Most Valuable Player (2022)
Since the onset of his career, Curry has been associated with the Golden State Warriors. This, in turn, makes the partnership between the player and the San Francisco-based outfit one of the hallowed pairings in the world of sports.
Today, Curry is more than a mere basketball player — he is a cultural icon. His popularity transcends the boundaries of basketball and there is hardly any part of the globe where his name is unknown. Such widespread fame, of course, comes with a huge fortune. As a matter of fact, in May 2024 he was named by Forbes as one of the highest-paid athletes in the world.
So just how opulent is the legendary point guard? And what are his sources of income? Join us as we delve deep into Stephen Curry’s net worth in 2024, salary from his NBA contract, houses, cars, brand deals and more.
Stephen Curry’s net worth: All you need to know about the basketball legend’s wealth
How much is Stephen Curry’s net worth in 2024?
According to a report by Celebrity Net Worth, Stephen Curry, in 2024, commands a healthy net worth of USD 180 million (nearly SGD 242.5 million).
Albeit not in the same league as Michael Jordan and LeBron James (who are practically billionaires), Curry has amassed a rather significant fortune in the course of his NBA career. In fact, he is one of the richest active NBA players in the world.
A close look at Stephen Curry’s salary from his NBA contract
If a player of Stephen Curry’s calibre has stayed with one team throughout his career, this means that the Golden State Warriors must have splurged huge sums to secure his service each year.
Forbes reported that in 2017, the point guard signed the NBA’s first-ever USD 200 million contract. Four years later, he inked a contract extension worth USD 215 million that will keep him at the San Francisco-based side till 2025. In the process, he became the first player in the NBA’s history to sign two back-to-back deals worth USD 200 million and more.
Now, let us break down Curry’s current contract with the Warriors. It translates to a yearly salary of USD 53.75 million. However, after deductions, the amount comes down to USD 52 million per annum.
Since that’s a huge sum, the American point guard is the highest-paid NBA player at present. This also explains why Stephen Curry’s salary per year is more than that of players like LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Here’s a quick tour of Stephen Curry’s houses
Like many famous and successful celebrities, Stephen Curry has a habit of purchasing lavish mansions. Hailing from Ohio’s Akron, the American basketball player has spent all his professional life playing for the Golden State Warriors. Therefore, it is not surprising to learn that he calls San Francisco his home.
Curry owns two houses in San Francisco at present. Here is a look at them along with his other real-estate properties:
Atherton, San Francisco
The primary residence of Stephen Curry and his family is in San Francisco’s Atherton where he owns a monstrous mansion. Located in the United States of America’s most expensive pin code, this house is a reflection of the point guard’s towering stature.

In addition to the aforementioned real-estate properties, Curry also owned a massive 7,500-square-foot mansion in Atherton.

He sold the house to Chinese billionaire Forrest Li in 2019 for a reported price of USD 31.2 million before moving to his new home in the same locality.

One of Stephen Curry’s prized possessions is his fleet of cars. A luxury car enthusiast, the total worth of his collection stands at USD 759,000. Not too bad for a baller, eh?

Porsche Panamera Turbo S
At a price tag of USD 179,000, the Porsche Panamera Turbo S is the costliest car in Stephen Curry’s collection, and for good reason as well.
The sports car houses a powerful four-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine that can produce up to 515 kilowatts of horsepower. It can accelerate up to a top speed of 315 kilometres per hour and is worthy of all the admiration it gets.
Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Stephen Curry’s penchant for sports cars, particularly those made by Porsche, extends to the brand’s 911 GT3 RS. With a pointed rear spoiler and custom-made wheel rims, this vehicle is a treat to the eyes.

Mercedes-Benz G55
A car for all seasons — this is the perfect way to describe Stephen Curry’s Mercedes-Benz G55. Be it a drive on a rocky terrain or in the countryside, the SUV is his perfect companion for unwinding during the off-season.
Powered by a 5.5-litre V8 supercharged engine, this Mercedes-Benz vehicle offers a top speed of 210 kilometres per hour. It is worth USD 123,600 (approximately).
Tesla Model X 90D

As an added design element, the vehicle comes with butterfly doors instead of the traditional ones. It is priced at an estimated USD 93,000.
Land Rover Range Rover
Stephen Curry’s list of SUVs is exhausting to some extent. Then again, not everyone is one of the highest-paid athletes in the world.
Land Rover’s iconic Range Rover SUV finds a place in Curry’s fleet of cars as well. As a matter of fact, the Golden State Warriors point guard is quite a fan of this car.
Under the hood, the Range Rover is fitted with a top-of-the-shelf three-litre V6 engine. The car can reach a top speed of 283 kilometres per hour and comes with a price tag of USD 90,900.
Cadillac Escalade ESV
An SUV like no other (or should we say ESV?), the Cadillac Escalade is a car fitting for a family man like Stephen Curry. For the unversed, the ESV is an acronym coined by Cadillac which stands for Escalade Stretch Vehicle.
Is there a marked difference between an ESV and an SUV? No, the former is practically a fancier name for a luxury SUV.
Besides spacious interiors, the Cadillac Escalade ESV houses a 6.2-litre V8 engine. The car can attain a top speed of 243 kilometres per hour and is worth USD 76,990.
Infiniti Q50
Stephen Curry was the face of the Infiniti Q50’s launch campaign way back in 2018, so it is not surprising to see him own one of these bad boys in his collection.

Which brands does Stephen Curry endorse?
Being one of the finest basketball players of all time, Stephen Curry enjoys the privilege of being endorsed by a host of multinational brands. They even account for a large chunk of his earnings.
While he was a Nike athlete at the start of his career, Curry signed a sponsorship deal with American sportswear corporation Under Armour in 2013 that was worth USD 4 million. In 2017, he extended his contract with the brand, making it a USD 215 million deal that came with equity in the company. Three years later, he signed yet another contract, extending his association with Under Armour.
As a part of the new agreement, the company, in association with the Golden State Warriors star, launched a line of products under the banner ‘Curry Brand’. Known for its line of shoes, the ‘Curry Brand’ started to rival Nike’s Jordan lineup (made in association with Michael Jordan) in no time. To date, Under Armour and Stephen Curry have launched more than 10 signature shoes as part of the lineup.
Here’s a fun fact: the ‘Curry Brand’ influenced the baller’s income from Under Armour to such an extent that it became one of the richest endorsement deals in sports, according to a few reports. However, the financial details of this contract remain undisclosed.
Additionally, Curry has several other companies in his endorsement portfolio. These include:
- Chase
- Nissan Motors
- Rakuten
- JP Morgan
- Sony
- Brita
- Vivo
- Unilever
- Infiniti
- FTX

Is Stephen Curry involved with works of charity?
A philanthropist at heart, Stephen Curry has never shied away from helping the most needful sections of society.
In 2012, the basketball player donated three insecticide-treated mosquito nets for every three-pointer he scored that season.

He was also a part of erstwhile US President Barack Obama’s ‘President’s Malaria Initiative’ strategy that ran from 2015 to 2020.
Following the 2015-16 NBA season in which he won the MVP award, Curry donated his prized car — a Kia Sorento — to the East Oakland Youth Development Center, which is a local non-profit organisation based out of the backyard of the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California.
