Curry said in a statement that he was pumped for the sale, as he noted that every dollar the footwear brings in will go toward his and his wife Ayesha's Eat.Learn.Play. Foundation, which helps kids in need.

"I'm excited to share this unique catalog in a way that lets fans be part of the journey," Curry said. "Partnering with Sotheby's to bring this auction to life gives these sneakers a platform beyond the game, where they can live on and mean something to someone else."
Curry became a shoe free agent back in November , and he went on to wear unique kicks daily as a way to pay homage to some of his friends and heroes.

"From the legendary NBA stars that I grew up admiring, to the current players that I've enjoyed competing against, along with some of the biggest names in the WNBA that are helping to drive the momentum across the women's game, I had so much fun breaking out pairs all season long that each meant so much to me," Curry said.

"When you look back at both sneaker culture and basketball history, each pair represents an iconic moment, groundbreaking athlete or key chapter over the years in the NBA and WNBA."
The sale is slated to end on April 28.
