Steph Curry and Riley Go Viral after 2015 NBA Playoffs Interview.
Steph Curry said he regretted bringing Riley to the NBA Finals that year.
During a candid sit down with The Undefeated in 2019, the basketball champion shared that while his interview blunder with Riley was pretty funny, he did have a few regrets about bringing his daughter to the NBA finals in 2015. “I’ve always wanted to share what I get to do, and all the experiences I have, with my family,” the Ohio native said. “I didn’t know how much that would blow up and how much of a splash she [would make] on the scene. If I could take that one back, I probably would, just because my goal is just to give my kids the best chance at success and at seeing the world in the proper way.1.

Giving back to the community is important for the Curry family. In 2021, Steph, Ayesha and Riley were present for the unveiling of the new playground, multi-sport court and garden at Franklin Elementary School in Oakland.
The initiative was spearheaded by the duo’s Eat, Play, Learn Program to help increase playspaces for young children living in impoverished neighborhoods.
“There is a powerful, positive connection with a child’s success and the recommended daily amount of physical activity,” Steph and Ayesha shared in a statement. “This is what we have made Play one of the core pillars for our foundation. For children living in poverty, play is often too hard to come by as their families face many obstacles, ranging from a lack of safe places to play to under-resourced schools that cut recess and physical education. This is why we are so very excited to celebrate the dream playspace that will be coming to Franklin Elementary next year and we can get back to playing once again!”
That same year, Riley helped her parents to renew their vows in honor of their 10th wedding anniversary.
