As of today, Warriors guard Stephen Curry is one of the best there is in the NBA. After finishing with his best season in terms of points last year, the 33-year-old is currently striking gold in the 2021-22 season too. The only difference is, this year, he has quality backup. Even in the absence of Klay Thompson, Curry and his teammates like Jordan Poole & Andrew Wiggins have been putting up insane numbers. As a result, anybody who gets to learn from the best is hugely fortunate.
