Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry has given fans a new way to step inside his world with the release of his latest book, Shot Ready. Far more than just a sports memoir, the book explores the mindset, preparation, and habits that have made Curry one of the most accomplished players in NBA history. As he enters his 17th season in the league, Curry’s new work offers both an intimate look at his journey and practical insights for anyone striving for success on or off the court.
In a recent appearance on TODAY, Curry explained that the title Shot Ready reflects a broader philosophy than simply taking shots in basketball. “It’s about being prepared for life’s biggest moments,” Curry said. “Whether it’s on the court or in life, you have to be ready to seize opportunities when they come your way.” This message resonates beyond sports, touching on themes of preparation, resilience, and focus that can apply to anyone pursuing their goals.
The book is a blend of memoir and motivational guide. It features behind-the-scenes photos and personal reflections, giving readers a rare glimpse into Curry’s daily life. From family moments to faith-based insights, Curry shares the routines, challenges, and decisions that have shaped his career. Fans will also get an up-close look at the dedication and discipline required to compete at the highest level of professional basketball.
One of the standout aspects of Shot Ready is its focus on the mental side of success. Curry emphasizes how much of being great is about mindset, preparation, and a willingness to put in the work when no one is watching. This approach has become a hallmark of his career, helping him redefine the art of shooting in the NBA and inspiring a generation of athletes around the world.
Beyond his achievements on the court, Curry also shares his thoughts about the future and his plans once his playing days are over. He assured fans that he doesn’t plan to leave basketball entirely. “I see what these coaches go through in the league, so I understand how hard the job is,” Curry said. “For me though, it’s about figuring a way to have an influence in the game, to give back to it the way that so many people have poured into me. Whether that’s a skill development thing, a consultant thing, I don’t know what it is, but I know I’m going to be a part of the game where anybody can reach out to me.”
For Warriors fans and basketball enthusiasts alike, Shot Ready offers a new perspective on one of the most iconic players of this generation. It’s both a celebration of Curry’s accomplishments and a blueprint for success, highlighting how preparation, mindset, and perseverance intersect to create greatness. Whether you’re hoping to improve your game on the court or simply seeking inspiration in your daily life, Curry’s latest book is a reminder that being ready mentally, physically, and emotionally is the key to achieving your goals.
Shot Ready is now available at major retailers, offering readers the chance to go beyond the highlight reels and truly understand the man behind the three-pointers.
