Steph Curry was made for the Internet.

He’ll flood Twitter timelines at any given moment as everyone watches in awe of his wizardry. He’s the king of Vine, crossing over opponents and draining shots with seconds to spare on the video sharing social media site.

His ability to capture the world’s attention through social media cements his place as the defining star of this generation. His fast, flashy attacks are perfect for a generation whose attention span wanes rather quickly.

Throughout 2015, Curry did some things that just left us speechless. And the Internet soaked it up.

Who could forget when he did this to Chris Paul, essentially completing the passing of the torch as the best point guard in the league?

Or how about when he destroyed the whole Los Angeles Clippers?

And it’s not just Stephen who makes waves on social media. The rest of the Curry clan have become sensations, especially daughter Riley Curry.

Wife, Ayesha, has built up her own fanbase, through her cooking and lifestyle videos, sharing her world with over two million followers on Instagram. Of course, few moments, sports or non-sports, sparked a conversation quite like the one Ayesha did with these tweet.

"Everyone's into barely wearing clothes these days huh? Not my style. I like to keep the good stuff covered up for the one who matters"

This family makes a lot of impressions, to say the least. Steph Curry has made social media his in what has proven to be a perfect relationship.
