Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has solidified his legacy as one of the greatest players in NBA history. He’s the league’s all-time leader in three-point field goals, and he has won two MVP awards.
Curry has also played on some great teams over the years. So, since rings are the only achievements people seem to care about, how many championships has Curry won in his career?
Here’s a look at his titles.
Stephen Curry has won four NBA championships
Stephen Curry and the Warriors won the first of their four championships together in 2015 when they knocked off LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in six games. It was also Golden State’s first title in 40 years.
Steph, who won his second consecutive MVP award in 2015-16, followed up his first championship run by leading the Warriors to a record 73-win season the following year. However, after claiming a 3-1 lead over James and the Cavs in the Finals, the Dubs fell to Cleveland in seven games. Despite the loss, Golden State’s title window was far from over.
The Warriors added Kevin Durant during the 2016 offseason, and they went on to win two straight championships in 2016-17 and 2017-18. They beat the Cavs in five games that first season before sweeping them in 2018.
Curry’s squad then reached the Finals again in 2019, but injuries to Durant and Klay Thompson resulted in a 4-2 loss to Kawhi Leonard and the Toronto Raptors.
Curry added a fourth championship in 2022
Curry added his fourth NBA championship in 2022 when he rallied his team past the Boston Celtics.
The Celtics stole homecourt advantage from the Warriors with a 120-108 victory on the road, but after Boston held a 2-1 series lead, Curry took charge.
In a crucial Game 4 in Boston, Curry put the Warriors on his back. He made seven three-pointers and finished with a game-high 43 points en route to a 107-97 victory. The Warriors outscored the Celtics 28-19 in the fourth quarter to seal the deal.
The Celtics never won again.
The Warriors extended their series lead to 3-2 with a 104-94 win at home in Game 5. Curry then helped clinch the series in Boston with a 34-point effort in a 103-90 victory.
So, all in all, the two-time NBA scoring leader has played in six NBA Finals, and he has won four championships.
