Sonya Curry, 56, and Dell Curry, 57, divorced in November after 33 years of marriage. Each accused the other of infidelity. Less than three weeks later, at Madison Square Garden, Curry broke Ray Allen’s NBA all-time record for 3-pointers with the 2,974th of his career. His parents were not side-by-side. “I had to make sure I was in that moment with both of them separately and this wasn’t just this whole kind of thing,” Curry later told The Ringer. “That is how I choose to approach that. Because it is challenging.”

Meet Steven Johnson, the former Patriots TE who had an affair with Sonya Curry
Former Patriots TE Steven Johnson’s name was thrown to the public during Sonya and Dell Curry’s divorce.
Steven Johnson, a tight end who was drafted by the New England Patriots in 1988, made headlines in 2021 for his involvement with Sonya Curry, mother to NBA players Steph Curry and Seth Curry.
Sonya filed for divorce after 33 years of marriage with Dell Curry and the pair accused of each other of cheating. Sonya claimed that Dell cheated on her with multiple women during the marriage and Dell accused her of having an affair with Johnson.
According to TMZ, Sonya denied the fact she was cheating on Dell and said the relationship began months after the couple decided to legally separate in March of 2020. In court documents, Dell said Sonya “began her extramarital affair with Mr. Johnson during the marriage and prior to the date of separation, and she lied to [Dell] each time she cheated on him.”
Dell said she was living with Johnson in Tennessee and that she shouldn’t be entitled to alimony because of it. Sonya denied these claims.

“Klay loves playing with Steph, he …
“Klay loves playing with Steph, he respects him so much,” Klay’s father Mychal Thompson said on Dell and Sonya Curry’s podcast “Raising Fame.” “He talks about him all the time and how hard he works, how dedicated he is to the game and to his family. He has said it to me in private that he loves playing with Steph and he wants to retire as a Warrior after another 10 years.“
“He wants to go into the Hall of Fame …
“He wants to go into the Hall of Fame along with Steph. That’s how close he feels to him and how honored he is to play with him. They have formed a special bond. That’s why I told him, I said,’Even though you’re going to probably miss this year, you and Steph will still have eight years together as long as you take care of your bodies.’”
LeBron said he wanted to copy Currys when rooting for his son, school
LeBron James said he wanted to take some notes from Steph Curry’s Mom Sonya on how to support diverging rooting interests.
This weekend was a new experience for LeBron James, not because he and his Los Angeles Lakers are barnstorming through the Eastern Conference on their current road trip, but because he saw his son play in a real high school game for the first time and it happened in LeBron’s home state of Ohio against his alma mater, St. Vincent-St. Mary’s of Akron, Ohio.
His son Bronny honored his father by wearing his Dad’s first signature shoe, the Air Zoom Generation, in the St. Vincent-St. Mary’s colorway. But LeBron himself took a more neutral turn, not even wearing a pair of his own signature shoes. During a halftime interview with ESPN’s Rachel Nichols, LeBron said that he wanted to take a page from the book of Sonya Curry and Dell Curry, the parents of Steph and Seth, who often wear gear for both of their rooting interests.

James will always have an interest in St. Vincent-St. Mary’s, still coached by his high school coach Dru Joyce II. James also donated $1 million to SVSM a few years ago to refurbish their home gym.
But he may not need the Sonya Curry strategy until Sierra Canyon plays against St. V again.
