Stephen Curry won’t be suiting up for a basketball game on his birthday this year. Over his career, the Golden State Warriors are 4-2 on Curry’s birthday, yet his 2020 celebration on the court has been postponed.
For Curry’s 32nd birthday, the Warriors were slated to play Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks. However, the NBA is on hiatus until further notice due to the coronavirus pandemic.
While the NBA season is on hold, members of the Golden State Warriors have been sharing birthday wishes for the six-time All-Star.
Although they were never teammates, Allen Iverson chimed in on his fellow Most Valuable Player’s birthday. Iverson posted a happy birthday message for Curry on his Instagram. The Hall of Famer point guard shared a photo of him and Curry at NBA All-Star weekend in Charlotte.

In 24 games against Golden State in his career, Iverson averaged 26.8 points, 6.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds per contest.
In the 2009-10 season, Curry and “The Answer” played against each other twice during Iverson’s final run in the NBA. Against Curry, Iverson tallied 18 and 20 points in two contests with the Warriors rookie scoring 7 and 14.
