Future Hall of Famer Steph Curry has joined forces with UConn Women’s star Azzi Fudd. She has officially become his “Splash Sister”. Curry is bringing the UConn freshman basketball player into his SC30 brand. He’s attempting to build her in a unique, wide-ranging partnership that will guide and support her success both on and off the court. As one of the nation’s top recruits, she continues to build her college career. Steph Curry wants to help build her a multidimensional name and image.
The reigning NBA scoring champion, with two young daughters, wants to elevate women athletes in general and do more to help the game. In 2018, Fudd participated in Curry’s camp. She was one of the only two women invited to play. However, she and Curry continued to build upon this relationship after the camp was over. Fudd motivated him to run an all-girls camp that summer to give them the same opportunities that boys have.
Curry intends to personally guide the young woman as she manages school, basketball, and the challenges of being seen as a leading female athlete. He aims to assist Fudd in showcasing her true self by expressing her interests and character. He also wants to provide her with a platform and financial backing to share her ideas and values going forward.
“Azzi Fudd is the perfect fit for this brand partnership because she represents the future of women’s basketball. She has been associated with SC30 Inc. and the Curry Brand family since she first attended the All-American Camp,” stated Curry.
