Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors dominated the court and crushed the Phoenix Suns in their latest outing. The lopsided match was a display of the NBA star’s threatening lore that broke down as he switched roles only a while later. Post-match, the athlete took family duties for his nephew and niece, who accompanied his sister Sydel Curry.

After the match against the Suns, the rolling cameras recorded Stephen Curry hanging out on the court. Amid the crowd, the star dance-walked across to where his sister Sydel Curry and her children stood. However, before he could reach, his nephew Daxon ran up to Curry, who hauled him into his arms.

The video also went viral on social media, where Curry’s fans clung to the wholesome interaction that brought out a different side of him. “Uncle Steph gets some postgame family time,” wrote the Warriors on NBCS account on X.

The heartfelt moment was a stark contrast to what played out in the court minutes ago. Stephen Curry led the Warriors to a safer side of the playoff elimination than the Suns were tipped on. He contributed 25 points, nine rebounds, and six assists to the 133-95 win at Footprint Center. This was the team’s sixth win in seven games since the star player returned from an injury. However, the rigorous game did not tire Stephen Curry enough to not have a moment with his nephews.

Notably, the two-time MVP shares a deep bond with his family. While he was otherwise private about his personal life, he was never hesitant to express his love for his close ones. Back when Sydel Curry and her husband Damion Lee announced their pregnancy, Stephen Curry and his wife Ayesha Curry beamed with joy over the news. Sydel has also shared videos of her children hanging out with their uncle Steph.
