Stephen Curry
"With the 7th pick in the 2009 NBA Draft, the Golden State Warriors select Wardell Stephen Curry. Point guard from Davidson University." The announcer said into the mic.
I stood up, hugged my mom, dad, and my siblings, as I made my way onto the stage. I beamed into the audience as I accepted my hat, shook the announcers hand, and posed for a picture.
After spending all my life yearning to accomplish this moment, it feels surreal. Like I'm watching it all happen from someone else's body. I glance over at my dad and the look on his face his priceless. I can tell he's proud of me even though he hasn't been saying it much lately. All I have ever wanted was to make him proud, and prove that I can be just as great, if not better, as a player as he once was. I snapped out of my trance as I heard the next name being called and I made my way back down to my overjoyed family.
After the draft I braced myself for all the interviews that comes with being drafted. That's something my dad always warned me about, the fame, the pressure and responsibility that comes with it.
"So Stephen, how does it feel to be apart of the Golden State Warriors?" The perky young brunette asked.
