After a remarkable performance against the Kings, he unexpectedly shifted his long-standing rivals from their rival status, offering them his praise.

What does Stephen Curry think about the Sacramento Kings?

Golden State Warriors player Curry and Kings player De’Aaron Fox hold each other in the utmost regard. Nevertheless, despite this mutual respect, they engage in fierce competition on the basketball court. These two point guards are redefining the game with their unique styles, making their matchups must-see events. The rivalry between them is not just about individual performance. It’s about the competition between the Warriors and the Kings, with both teams vying for supremacy in the Western Conference.

However, by displaying immense respect for the team and Fox in a recent turn of events, Curry has effectively taken away their title as rivals.

He shared, “I mean, it?s great, I won?t call it a rivalry but it’s a great familiarity of knowing how many times we?ve played them over the last two years. Four times regular season, obviously seven games in the playoffs last year. We?ve already played them three times this year.?

He added, ?They are a tough team; young, super talented, obviously D Fox you know what he can do,?and this environment is pretty hostile.?

Indeed, the Warriors’ triumph would have been relatively swift had they not encountered a formidable challenge from the Sacramento Kings.
