TORONTO - When the NBA Finals begins in Toronto on Thursday it will be much more than the latest stop en route to a potential fourth championship for Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry but rather a homecoming of sorts.
Videos of a young Curry launching long-range shots on the Raptors home court are still online and offer a glimpse into the future of a player who has gone on to become the NBA’s greatest long-range shooter of all-time. Curry, who was born in Akron, Ohio but mainly grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina, still has an affinity for Toronto where as a child he played basketball for a since-closed school whose team he led to an undefeated season.
When Curry leads the two-times defending champion Warriors on to the court for Game One he will do so without Kevin Durant, who led Golden State to titles the last two years and was named NBA Finals MVP each time.
