Stephen Curry: Underrated is a sports documentary that will be coming our way soon in case you’re a fan of Steph Curry, an NBA All-Star with a nine-year career. The film focuses on the NBA star’s underrated skills and the journey to success.

Based on the synopsis of the sports documentary, the four-time NBA champ is described as a young man who is going through a “coming of age” phase. It will use cinema verité, archival footage, and on-camera interviews to tell the story of the player, demonstrating how he came from a small town called Davidson, North Carolina, as an “undersized college player” and how he eventually became a basketball superstar. Aside from that, we also get to see how Curry manages his life on and off the court.
We recently caught up with the NBA star as he talks about the documentary along with his impact among Gen Z basketball fans.
Official synopsis below:
The film is a “coming-of-age story” about Curry and his rise to NBA fame. The famous basketball player attended a small college, Davidson College, in the small town of Davidson, North Carolina. The real-life tale is told through cinéma vérité, archival footage and on camera interviews, per Apple TV+.
