Basketball starSteph Curry has escaped unhurt from a multiple-vehicle accident in California and thanked God for his good fortune.

The 30-year-old, who plays for the National Basketball League’s (NBL) Golden State Warriors, was driving his Porsche on State Route 24 in Oakland, when his car was hit by two other vehicle, in separate incidents.

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) said Curry’s black sports car was first struck by the driver of a Lexus, who lost control. Curry, who is currently off NBA duties because of a groin strain, stopped in the highway’s central divider to wait for officers, when another vehicle struck his car from behind.

“No injuries were reported or claimed in either traffic collision. No impairment was detected from any of the parties involved and no arrests were made,” the CHP wrote on its Facebook page, where it also posted a photograph of officers standing with Curry.

“Thankfully, everyone walked away uninjured due to everyone wearing their seatbelts. We would like to remind everyone to slow it during inclement weather.”

Reports said the Oakland had seen rain for much of Friday.

After the incident, which happened at around 9am, Curry, who plays guard for the Oakland-based team, tweeted: “Don’t need any reminders but All the time God is great and God is great all the time! Appreciate all the texts.”
