The truth behind "elementary schoolboy" Curry! The baby face is just a facade, the real reason makes people laugh to tears
10:47pm, 8 October 2025【Basketball】
As we all know, Curry has the nickname "primary school student". Many fans may think Curry has a baby face, so he was called a primary school student, but they don’t know that there are more interesting things behind this that make people talk about. The story goes back to 2013, when Curry and his wife went to a pizza restaurant in California to buy beer. The clerk stared at him for a long time and asked him to show his ID card, suspecting that he was under the age of age. Curry was actually 25 years old at that time and was still an NBA star!
This is not the most outstanding one. Once, when Curry went to buy wine, the salesperson elder sister said directly: "Minors can't drink alcohol, what kind of wine are you a primary school student?" From then on, the nickname "primary school student" spread in the fan circle. Imagine that scene: an MVP who is calling for the wind and rain in the NBA are actually banned from buying alcohol as a minor. This contrast is simply cute!
01 Born with a baby face, the cute image is deeply rooted in people's hearts
Why is Curry always mistaken for a primary school student? The first is his natural baby face. Even if you have a beard behind you, you can still see that childishness in his face. Many fans may not know that when Curry first entered the league, he was called "Cute God" with his handsome face. His former teammate Anthony Morrow even nicknamed Curry as "Shawty in the middle school" because he thinks Curry is always carefree when playing, just like in middle school. Look at Curry's actions on the field: after hitting a three-pointer, he shook his head, occasionally lying on the ground and flying a plane, sitting on the bench, waving his towel, and dancing gracefully. These innocent behaviors, coupled with his never-aged face, stand up like this.
02 Compared with the figure, it looks even more "petty". In the NBA with many people, Curry's height of 1.88 meters is indeed not outstanding. In addition, his relatively thin body shape, standing among the muscles, he looks even more "petty". Head coach Cole once pointed out a key point: "Curry's figure is more popular than Jordan", but the biggest difference is that "Curry's game style is deeply loved by children." Kerr also added: "You will see many young fans taking Curry's jersey to ask for Curry's signature. Curry is a very special superstar, because the 8-year-old fan will say, "Curry looks very similar to me, and maybe I can be as good as him." It is this kind of "affinity" in figure that makes Curry a carrier of basketball dreams for countless ordinary children.
"Primary School Student Behavior" inside and outside the stadium
Curry's childlike behaviors on and off the stadium make the nickname "Primary School Student" deserve their reputation. Who would have forgotten that he was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead when he was fast attacking under his opponent, making his opponent dare not make layups? Several other superstars would drink red wine through the towel and dye the towel red like Curry, which made his little daughter look at his father with surprise. His wife Ayesha posted a message directly, "I can't stand him very much." During his trip to China, Curry also completely put down his superstar airs. When he participated in an event in Taimiao, he would twist his fans and dancers, and he would also "show" the pain of pulling the crotch when the Taekwondo champion kicked his legs. He even pretended to throw the racket after losing to Ding Ning on the table tennis ball. So down-to-earth, fresh, and How can Curry not remind people of a lively and active elementary school student?
04 The love of global fans, the appeal beyond age, is beyond age, and the interestingness of this seemingly joking nickname did not make Curry lose the price, but instead made him more fans' love. When Curry was traveling to China in 2017, Beijing fans were crowded. When he walked into the basketball hall of Beijing University of Technology, the scene was too spectacular, and everyone could sit was full of people, and there was no place to sit and could only stand. Among the fans are children of a few years old and elderly people in their sixties or seventies, they have truly taken advantage of all ages. Curry is "the most humane among superstars", said Montpur of NBC Sports. When Curry plays, he exudes a childlike halo. His fan base spans all ages. When he is on the court, "happiness factor increases exponentially", which is also the unique charm of Curry "primary school student". Old fans also understand that it is rare to maintain a pure "primary school student" in this commercial sports circle.
