Stephen Curry tapes daughter Riley's ankles because it 'runs in the family' (PHOTO)

As Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry's stardom continues to rise, so too does the public ascension of his adorable daughter, Riley.

Riley was the star of the Warriors' 2014-15 championship run, constantly stealing the spotlight from her dad in his post-game press conference, and later at the team's victory parade.

In his latest social media moment with his daughter, Steph shared a photo of him taping Riley up -- in preparation for what we are not sure -- and a funny caption:

Curry, of course, dealt with ankle injuries during his first few seasons in the league, including playing just 26 games during the 2011-12 season, so that's what he is alluding to his caption.

In Riley's defense, it's tough work being America's favorite athlete child. Someone has to do it, and if ankle problems "run in the family," then it's better to be safe than sorry.
