## Caption

#StephCurry career almost ended before it ever really started. Between 2010 and 2012, his #ankles betrayed him over and over again. Surgeries. Missed games. Doubt everywhere. People forget how close the league was to labeling him “too fragile to build around.”

What actually saved him wasn’t more talent or a new jumper. It was rebuilding the foundation. Curry shifted how he moved, generated power from his #hips and core instead of his ankles, strengthened his lower body, improved balance, prioritized #recovery and played the long game with his body. Once the foundation held, everything else exploded. MVPs. Rings. A changed sport.
