The couple became well-known to those who don't follow sports after Riley attended Curry's press conferences and became her own little star.

Curry, a player for the Golden State Warriors, nabbed the NBA MVP. But it was soon clear that Riley should be given the title for the most adorable person.

During one press conference in May after his team won victory over the Houston Rockets Riley told her sports star dad to 'be quiet' despite him being named the MVP.

Grabbing the attention of the press Riley stole the show by hiding under the table curtain while her father tried to focus and speak about his game. 

But she may have given him good luck as the Golden State Warriors downed Cleveland 105-97 in Game Six to capture the NBA Finals last month.
