    Probably the mechanics of his gait.

    Steph curry pre-2014 had a shit ton of ankle injuries, he pretty much learned to walk and run again, hasn’t had a lower body injury since and has completely changed basketball forever.

      Curry also had Under Armor design his shoes specifically so they gave him better ankle support and to work well with the ankle braces he wears literally every second he is on the court.

      It also doesn’t hurt that Curry started really hitting the gym after 2014, and is now actually really strong for his size (his ability to make layups through contact in the lane is incredible).

      As a Warriors fan, it’s been amazing to see the lengths Curry went to in order to maximize his ability to stay on the court and to maximize the impact he has while on the court.
