Quick, name NBA star Steph Curry's coach. If you said Steve Kerr, we will give you partial credit. For full credit, credit must be given to Soo Yeon Lee (pictured, right). Famed for his reflexes and hand-eye coordination, the three-point assassin Curry owes a debt to Lee for honing his game. Lee, a former professional player with a defensive style, won six national junior titles in her native South Korea. After winning the US Open in 2007 and the Killerspin Invitational in 2009, she now calls Los Angeles home. Soon after settling in the West Coast, Lee began to diversify her portfolio. Her hyphenates include coach, actress, model and entrepreneur. Her company, SOO&PONG, offers high-end ping-pong gear, clothing and accessories to those in the know. Working as an ambassador for Susan Sarandon's hip ping-pong club franchise, SPIN, Lee began coaching various players in the entertainment industry. Soon, she was developing a client base which would make any agent jealous. Soon, Lee was teaching Jamie Foxx and the cast of "Entourage" the finer points of forehand topspin. Soon, word of Lee's talent for table tennis tutelage breached the entertainment-sports barrier, leading to training sessions with NBA stars like Blake Griffin (pictured), Chris Paul and the aforementioned Steph Curry. "He plays Ping-Pong just like he plays basketball," says Lee of Curry. "He’s so quick." With Lee helping hone his talents, Curry has moved up to second place on the all-time three-pointers list. The player he just passed, Reggie Miller, may yet extract an unexpected revenge. Reggie Miller is also a client of Lee's, one she considers the most talented of the crossover athletes she has coached. In preparation for a ping-pong challenge from Canadian rapper Drake, Miller trained with Lee in 2016. "I have never seen someone progress so fast. We trained intensely," Lee said. "And he beat Drake." While Curry has passed Miller in the record books, Miller is now the NBA's top ping-pong player. Just don't forget Soo Yeon Lee, the all-star coach to the All-Stars who taught them how to play.
