Zamst, a leader in high-performance sports protective equipment, has renewed its worldwide endorsement deal with professional basketball star Stephen Curry. Considered to be one of todays best basketball players, Curry has has continued to wear the Zamst A2-DX ankle braces throughout the 2012-14 seasons, and will wear the A2-DX ankle braces for the upcoming season.
Since his ankle ligament surgery in 2011, Curry has been wearing the Zamst A2-DX to support his ability to stay on the court. Stephen culminated his 2014 season by being named to his first All Star game, and starting at point guard for the Western Conference team. This All Star selection, in addition to setting the single season NBA record with 272 three pointers in 2013, Stephen has clearly separated himself as one of the elite shooters in NBA history. In addition to these achievements, he was once again selected to the 2014 Mens USA Basketball team. In the 2013-14 season Curry averaged 24.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 8.0 assists, and 1.6 steals, becoming the first player in team history to average 24 pts and 8 rebounds in a season.
Stephen is showing everyone what he can do when healthy, and is an amazing talent to watch on the court. said Bryan Smeltzer, general manager of Zamst US.

Ive used a lot of different braces to help reinforce my right ankle, but since my surgery I have only been wearing the Zamst A2-DX, it has provided the support I need to keep me on the court said Curry. The Zamst A2-DX is the only product that has given me the full confidence to play without the fear of re-injuring my ankle.
