Stephen Curry didn’t need to shoot threes to ‘dominate’ Summer League — he did it with just one small detail!

On Saturday, Stephen Curry, the Golden State Warriors’ sharpshooting legend, traded his signature three-pointers for a different kind of highlight at the NBA Summer League. The 37-year-old NBA superstar was spotted courtside at Chase Center in San Francisco, not as a player, but as the ultimate All-Star dad, cheering on his team with his youngest son, Caius Chai Curry, stealing the spotlight.

Cai, who turned one in May, was the undeniable star of the show. Dressed in a Warriors-colored bib, the toddler captivated fans with his uncanny resemblance to his future Hall of Fame father. The father-son duo’s appearance at the Warriors’ matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers was a heartwarming moment that lit up social media and the stands alike.

Curry has been in full-on family mode this offseason. Just weeks ago, he and wife Ayesha celebrated Cai’s first birthday with Steph in super dad mode, showering his youngest with love. Ayesha later shared adorable Father’s Day photos, capturing tender moments between Steph and Cai. The couple’s other children—12-year-old Riley, who’s now nearly as tall as her dad, 9-year-old Ryan, and 6-year-old Canon—have also been soaking up quality time with their father. From flexing on the beach with Ayesha to dancing with Ryan and Canon at a Golden State Valkyries WNBA game, Steph has been making every moment count.

On the 4th of July, Ayesha posted a sweet photo of Steph and Cai chilling in the water, a perfect snapshot of their bond. But Saturday’s Summer League game was all about Steph’s solo dad duty. With Cai in his arms, Curry proved he doesn’t need to sink threes to dominate the headlines—just a tiny Warriors fan by his side was enough to win the day.

As the new NBA season approaches, fans are already dreaming of Cai joining Riley and Ayesha in the stands, cheering on their dad as he continues to cement his legacy. For now, though, it’s clear that Steph’s greatest assist this summer has been creating unforgettable memories with his family.
