The Golden State fashion plate has made a point of wearing looks from independent labels during his “tunnel walks.”

“Celebrities like actors and musicians only have a few red carpets a year, but basketball players play anywhere between 80 to 100 games,” he said. The Golden State Warriors and Mr. Curry have tens of millions of followers on Instagram. “It’s typically a longer route for the smaller guys competing with prestigious designers who have name recognition because they have been around for 100 years and are giving celebrities free products,” he said. “They basically have a red carpet every third day of the year if you spread them out.” We always get a huge hit of orders from China and South Korea.” Mr. Ahmad said that engagement on his personal Instagram page and sales on his Shopify site spiked in the 48 hours after Mr. Curry’s appearance.

Game 4 of the NBA Finals saw one of the greatest performances of Stephen Curry's career. Putting the team on his back, Curry led the Golden State Warriors ...

Steph Curry reminded the basketball world of his greatness, notching 43 points on 14/26 shooting and keeping the Warriors' hopes alive. In a fourth-quarter filled with big shots, Steph Curry had the final say. Putting the team on his back, Curry led the Golden State Warriors to a furious comeback against the Boston Celtics and a 107-97 win.

The two-time MVP put the Warriors on his back to send the series back to San Francisco even at 2-2.

For Curry, Game 4 was a showcase of both prolific volume and dramatic timeliness. The Celtics, who led for most of the game, looked as if they'd get a long-awaited signature performance from Jayson Tatum, who entered the game averaging 22 points over the first three games on a woeful true shooting percentage of 48.4. Both Tatum and Jaylen Brown turned in solid efforts -- decisive, assertive attacks with smart playmaking. The Golden State Warriors built a dynasty playing a beautiful brand of basketball predicated on movement, passing and creativity. Against the NBA's top-ranked defense that has zeroed in on the game's most celebrated shooter, Curry found the smallest pockets of space in the Celtics' pick-and-roll coverage to launch looping shots from long distance and acrobatic runners off the dribble. Golden State has had to rely on Curry, with heavy usage of a more traditional pick-and-roll game to maximize his shot opportunities. The Warriors have traditionally featured plenty of offense during their dynastic run, but they have struggled to find consistent shot creation outside of Curry's exploits.
