The answer
Spoiler for the puzzle of Thursday, July 30, 2026. Today's puzzle is not revealed anywhere on this page.
Stephen Curry
G · 2009–2027
Stephen Curry's career
Stephen Curry played 18 seasons between 2009 and 2027, all of it with the Warriors. Over 1,069 regular-season games he averaged 24.8 points, 4.7 rebounds and 6.3 assists, finishing with 26,528 career points. He was 2× MVP, 1× Finals MVP, 12× All-Star, 11× All-NBA, 4× champion and member of the NBA 75th Anniversary Team.
He entered the league in the 2009 draft, taken 7th overall in the lottery. That makes him a product of the 2000s, and his career totals should be read against the pace and rules of that period.
Across a unusually long career of 18 seasons he was a primary scoring option at 24.8 points per game. He was a genuine playmaker, not just a finisher.

How the clues read

- Teams:
- Warriors

Why this was a fair answer
Answers are never obscure by design: the pool is every NBA All-Star who debuted in the 1969-70 season or later, plus current players carrying a real scoring role. Stephen Curry qualifies on the first route, with 12 All-Star selections — one of the most decorated players of his generation. He was later named to the NBA 75th Anniversary Team.
A one-franchise career made the shared-team clue brutal: it stayed grey for almost every guess, and went green only for players from that same roster. The 4 championship rings were another strong signal — most of the pool has none.
