In a recent interview with the Charlotte Observer, Dell Curry, father of NBA stars Stephen and Seth Curry, revealed he has remarried after his public divorce from Sonya Curry in 2021.

Dell expressed his happiness with his new life. He initially planned to move west to be closer to his sons but ultimately decided to stay in Charlotte. Through friends, he met his now-wife Nicki, and after a month of phone conversations, they married. He emphasized his contentment with his current situation and his strong family relationships.

Sonya and Dell Curry’s Divorce

Sonya filed for divorce in 2021 after nearly 30 years of marriage. While a joint statement expressed their desire for continued family happiness, the split appeared contentious.

Court documents revealed accusations of infidelity from both sides. Dell accused Sonya of having an affair with former NFL player Steven Johnson, while Sonya denied this and claimed Dell had multiple affairs throughout the marriage.

Dell Curry’s Basketball Career

Despite recent personal challenges, Dell seems to have found happiness again.

A Charlotte Hornets legend, he averaged 11.7 points per game throughout his career.

While known for his decade with the Hornets, he also played for other teams like the Raptors and Bucks. He retired as the Hornets’ all-time leading scorer, a record later surpassed by Kemba Walker.

As a skilled shooter himself, Dell arguably paved the way for his sons’ success in the NBA, with Steph Curry being widely considered the greatest shooter ever.
