With NBA season two months away, Warriors' Steph Curry fundraises for Oakland schoolkids
Briefly

Steph Curry attended a Stanford charity fundraiser, mingling with former NFL stars and promoting his Gentleman's Cut bourbon while representing his Eat. Learn. Play. foundation and new business partner Google. At 37, Curry acknowledged that off-court partnerships and ventures add complexity to his schedule but emphasized that basketball remains his primary focus and that he must budget his time. Curry's season begins Oct. 21 in Los Angeles. He circled road games in Charlotte and Toronto to visit family and expressed excitement about playing a 17th NBA season after a recent All-NBA third-team campaign and a second-round playoff appearance.
Puffing on a cigar between decisive swings at the Stanford Golf Course, Steph Curry looked as if he did not have a care in the world on Wednesday afternoon. He sure was busy, though. After mingling with former pro football stars such as Steve Young and Peyton Manning during a charity fundraiser for his Eat. Learn. Play. foundation and enjoying the company of new business partner Google, the Warriors star posed with a bottle of his Gentleman's Cut bourbon.
With his career closer to the end than the beginning at age 37, focusing on his off-court partnerships and endeavors must have become easier with age, right? Not quite. It might make it harder, because the main thing is getting everything I can out of basketball, and how I can budget that time, said Curry, whose season begins Oct. 21 when the Warriors visit the Lakers.
But the scale of the work that we're doing, like the partnership with Google, Workday, the investment around what Eat. Learn. Play.' has done, and you have fun with other ventures, every minute is still the same 60 seconds. With the season nearly two months away, Curry did not comment on the Warriors having made no free agent moves, but did make it clear that he has not obsessed over the details of the upcoming schedule.
