In doing so, she received a lot of attention, and even got noticed by another Curry – the one who plays for the Golden State Warriors.

Jayda was able to set up a meet and greet with Stephen Curry at the Warriors' practice facility after a game last season. After meeting Jayda, Steph showed appreciation for the impact she was making.

"She's well on her way to, obviously, a successful college career, and the sky's the limit," [Steph] Curry told the San Francisco Chronicle. "For her to find a way to make her presence known already in her freshman year is pretty unbelievable. That there's an impact there is still surreal, crazy. Obviously, the coincidence with the last name - it's pretty dope that she has an attachment to what I've done on the court, and wants to use that as inspiration for her career."

But if you ask Jayda what matters most to her, two things she will mention are her family and faith. And a byproduct of her early success in the form of an offer to collaborate with Courtsmith - an apparel brand - gave her a chance to bring those two passions to life in the form of her own clothing line.

Curry's father, Gary, was a big influence on her early start in basketball. Curry's earliest memory is of him placing a ball in her hands when she was just 4 years old along with her younger sister, Layla, who was just 3 at the time.

"My dad would tell you that he knew when I was 4 years old that I was going to play D-I basketball," Curry said.

In addition to Layla, Jayda has two other sisters - Kayla and Ayva. So it took a lot of dedication from her parents to support her schedule.

"Sometime they would be working two jobs. Sometimes they weren't working so they could be home with us," Curry said. "I can't remember a time where we didn't really have a parent travel with us for basketball. So they were sacrificing maybe working a particular week so they could travel with us and see us play."

Layla is a freshman on the women's basketball team at Loyola Marymount University. The two spent their formative years going at it in the backyard as most siblings do, and Jayda has fond memories looking back and appreciates the progress her sister has made.

"When we were younger, I was bigger than her and then out of nowhere she had a growth spurt and has been bigger than me for a long time now," Curry said. "We used to go at it with everything when we were younger; not just basketball. Our family is really competitive, so even with card games or backyard football, we went at it. She's gotten a lot better over the years and to be able to see that has been really cool."

Curry's faith was something that was instilled in her from a young age by her parents, who met at the Friendship Baptist Church in Yorba Linda, California.  Similar to her start in basketball, Jayda began going to vacation bible school starting at the age of 4. It's a practice that she has continued to this day as she regularly attends a church close to campus called The Way, and is something she has incorporated into her pregame rituals starting from her playing days at Centennial High School in Corona.

On a game day, Jayda will pray before coming out for pregame warmups, before coming onto the court as a team and right before the tipoff. She credits her faith with getting her through some tough times after not being a heavily sought-after recruit.

"It's something that has helped me throughout my basketball career," Curry says. "Especially being under-recruited, not getting picked for McDonald's All-American, the Jordan camp and things like that. During those times, I just thought if it's not in His plan for me, there are bigger things that are going to happen. It's something that taught me not to doubt myself and not to doubt God's plan because everything happens for a reason."

When Curry was approached by Courtsmith to collaborate on a clothing line, she had an opportunity to incorporate messages that meant the most to her. Her most recent merch drop includes a hoodie that has the phrase "God, Family, Hoop," which represents her deep-rooted faith and love for her family. One of her most popular items is a sweater that has the message "Be Deadly, Stay Humble," which is the mentality she plays with on the court.

"I've really grown to love the process of it from the initial meetings we had to designing the clothes," Curry said. "It's a cool thing outside of basketball that I enjoy now."

Jayda also considers herself a sneakerhead, claiming to own roughly 70 pairs of footwear in her collection. Out of all the shoes she owns, one would think her favorite pair would be a signature basketball shoe. But she will tell you her favorite shoes to wear are her Crocs.

"I got my first pair of Crocs in eighth or ninth grade and have been rocking them ever since," Curry said. "Crocs are one of my favorite shoes because they are the easiest things to thrown on. The ones with the fur are my favorite."

Jayda plans to continue expanding her brand in the fashion industry and hopes to develop something in the footwear space next. "If [Crocs] reached out, I would be their No. 1 supporter," Curry joked.

The ball is in their court.
