Stephen Curry’s alma mater Davidson celebrated their former basketball star in three major ways Wednesday, starting with his official graduation ceremony.
The current Warriors star left Davidson 13 years ago when he still had one semester left of school before earning his degree. This past spring semester, Curry enrolled in classes to finish his degree back in May.
Because he was able to earn his degree, the eight-time All-Star could then get his jersey retired at Davidson. The school requires athletes to graduate before getting their jerseys retired.
The 34-year-old didn’t attend the spring graduation because the Warriors were competing in the playoffs.
