Toddler Nicknamed 'Stuff Curry' Looks A Lot Like Golden State Warriors Star Stephen Curry

Landon Lee is an adorable 10-month-old baby from Quincy, Ill. and his mom Jessica Benton had no idea who Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry was up until recently when someone on social media pointed out how much Landon looked like Curry. One thing led to another and suddenly baby Landon was given the nickname “Stuff Curry” because of his lovable chubbiness.

At first, Benton wasn’t sure how she felt about people giving Landon that type of nickname, but she quickly grew to embrace it.

I’m not going to let them fat shame my baby and put it all over online and I just give up there. I wanted to really turn it into something good and take control of it and say, “OK, we’re gonna own this name. Yeah, we’re Stuff Curry. We look like the famous basketball player.”

Benton even created an Instagram account for little Landon and it already has 37,000 followers. She said that most of her interaction with people has been positive and that Under Armour even sent her some little Curry Twos for Landon.

Despite still not being big into basketball, Benton says the family is pulling hard for the Warriors in the NBA Playoffs.

“I’m rooting for them to win everything,” Benton said.
