National Basketball Association superstar & Thirty Ink Chief Executive Officer Stephen Curry has a lifelong habit of betting on himself and winning big.

Emily Chang speaks with Curry about how Silicon Valley helped shape his business approach, his long shots on and off the court and aspirations to own a basketball team one day.
