Stephen Curry is already the greatest shooter of all-time, but what if we told you he's actually had trouble seeing over the course of his entire career, would you believe us?
If you don't believe us, would you believe it if Curry himself said it?
As per Marcus Thompson of The Athletic, Curry told him he got over his shooting slump after the All-Star break by simply starting to wear contacts.
Curry said he has a condition called Keratoconus which "is a progressive eye disease in which the normally round cornea thins and begins to bulge into a cone-like shape. This cone shape deflects light as it enters the eye on its way to the light-sensitive retina, causing distorted vision."
So, the greatest shooter of all-time has had eye issues for the entirety of his career (and maybe his life) and now he's seeing as clear as he has ever seen. Look out rest of the NBA.
In his last 9 games, Curry is shooting 51.4% from deep (56 for 109), so clearly the contacts are making a difference.
