All NBA fans have raised questions on who is the great point guard of all time, at least once. Though there may be many cliched answers to this, one correct answer is Stephen Curry.

“Watching Steph come out of college, I wasn’t his biggest fan. I actually didn’t think that’s was going to make it in the NBA. But after watching him for a couple of years, I became a big fan of his.”

Is he on his way to another title?

From a lightly recruited prospect in high school, then a college sensation and now an NBA superstar, Steph has exceeded everyone’s expectations, not just Shawn Kemp. Throughout his way to stardom, the big man has added many accolades to his resume, one of them being his championships.

However, the injuries of running mate Klay Thompson have slowed down the franchise a bit. Although Thompson is going to be absent in the 2020-21 campaign, the Warriors did justice to their offseason by building a talented roster.
