“Steph Curry is the face of the franchise, and that helps me out, because I don’t have to,” he said.

 

“I don’t want to have to be the leader. I’m not a leader. I’m bad at saying, ‘Stand behind me and follow me.’

 

“No. I’m one of those guys that’s just like, ‘Let’s do this shit together. Let’s just work everybody together. I don’t mind being on the front line with you, but let’s come and do it together.’

 

“That’s my way of leadership. I’m leading by example.”
