In the era before the NBA embraced the three-point shot, the Golden State Warriors were a struggling team with bleak prospects of improving. Nevertheless, they managed to transform their future by recruiting promising young players: Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green, through the draft. This move proved pivotal in shaping the team’s long-term success.
These three ball players, all of whom were considered top-tier in the league, have proven their worth and have become legitimate stars. Among them, Curry has risen above the rest and has become a superstar who has defined an era with his unique style of play. He has arguably changed the way basketball is played in the modern NBA. At the ripe age of 35, Curry is playing for his legacy. With four championship rings to his credit, he’s on par with LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers. And with potentially several more years left in his prime, he could add even more to his impressive record.
Curry is determined to win as many championship rings as possible before retiring from the NBA. He recently shared a picture of himself wearing all four of his championship rings, which sparked reactions from fans. Many believe Steph is one of the top 10 best players of all time and deserves more respect. If Curry were to retire today, he would be eligible for the Hall of Fame and considered one of the greatest guards and shooters in NBA history. However, he still has work to do to cement his legacy alongside legends like Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, and Michael Jordan.
