Steph Curry has had a dream career. He''s a four-time NBA champion, a two-time NBA MVP, a two-time NBA scoring champion, a ten-time NBA All-Star, and an Olympic gold medallist. Widely recognised as the greatest shooter in history, he has revolutionized the sport of basketball and will leave behind a legacy as perhaps the greatest Golden State Warrior player of all time. In Shot Ready , Curry shares his full story with the public for the first time. In three parts - Rookie, Pro and Veteran - he takes the reader through his career in remarkable and intimate detail, telling stories and detailing lessons he learned at different points throughout. Grounding each lesson in reality, so that anyone can learn from his experiences regardless of their discipline in life, he produces a truly special memoir. Perfect for fans of basketball, but also for anyone interested in the psychology of performance, or just looking for a fascinating read about an incredible life, Shot Ready is a tribute to the inescapable human fallibility of even the greatest sportspeople amongst us, and a testament to the subsequent grit, determination and guile required to become a champion.
