After suffering an injury that forced her to miss the entire 2020-21 season, Curry worked hard to get back on the floor for the Saints. "The recovery process was hard, but I surrounded myself with supportive people," said  Curry. "There were days when I wanted to quit and I thought it was too hard, but the people around me wanted to see me prosper and strive for greatness. With any recovery you have to have a positive mindset, and I believe that helped push me to want to get better."
