Stephen Curry Research Paper

A leader is someone who takes charge when it matters the most. Even when the odds are completely against them they push on to reach their goal.

I’m 5’9 and 130 pounds so I’m not exactly a large person. But Stephen Curry has inspired me to continue doing what I love no matter how much the odds are against me.

During the finals I realized Steph Curry was a very talented person. I will continue to look up to Stephen Curry and look at his accomplishments when I am in
