?Outside of Steph Curry, I Don?t Think??: Despite Constantly Praising LeBron James, 11-Year-Long NBA Veteran Makes a Stern Admission

LeBron James and Stephen Curry are known to be outstanding scorers. James, only a few months back, became the all-time points leader in NBA history. One of Steph’s teammates made a significant admission, lavishing praise on Curry, however, he omitted LeBron James from the conversation entirely, raising intrigue and speculation.

The Golden State Warriors were eliminated in the playoffs at the hands of LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. An NBA veteran, however, holds the opinion that LeBron James should not be included in the conversation alongside Nikola Jokic and Stephen Curry when it comes to shooting from a specific area on the basketball court.

Draymond Green makes a massive admission

Draymond Green often expresses his opinions and provides insights on basketball. Green recently shared his perspective on the first game of the NBA Finals between the Denver Nuggets and the Miami Heat.

Draymond Green said, “Aside from Steph Curry, there’s a more challenging player to defend against in the NBA. Steph, because he shoots the ball exceptionally well from all areas of the court. His shooting range is remarkable. And Joker, his shooting touch is extraordinary.” While Green offered considerable admiration for Curry and Jokic, he did not specifically mention LeBron James.

One may hold a different opinion considering LeBron’s versatility and proficiency in shooting from almost every part of the basketball court. Despite having previously acknowledged LeBron James on several occasions, Green did not include him when discussing some of the toughest players to guard in the NBA.

He did, however, recently praise LeBron James in the Western Conference Finals.
