Bobby Krivitsky: Ron Harper Jr. reveals his top-5 NBA players of all-time. It’s a list that includes Steph Curry. He also has his dad’s former teammate, Michael Jordan, ahead of LeBron James.
Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker has weighed in on one of basketball's most popular debates, revealing his all-time NBA starting lineup. In a video posted to TikTok by chickenwrapcharge, Booker selected Stephen Curry, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Shaquille O'Neal as his all-time starting five.
Delivering to his community has been an antidote for the monotony and frustration of rehab. “It was cool just having a vision in your head and then making it come to fruition,” Moody said, “and being able to actually see it turn out even better than you could have imagined it. “He was everything you could have ever asked him to be,” Moody said of Stephen Curry. “He flew in, woke up at 4 o’clock in the morning Friday to get here by seven for the golf tournament. Then he woke up at 6 in the morning Saturday to be here at the school for the event. He had the energy and the effort for everybody. I hope he enjoyed it. I think he did.”
Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant said Saturday that LeBron James and the new-look Philadelphia 76ers have the offensive firepower to compete for the 2027 NBA championship. What's more, Durant evoked his two Golden State Warriors championship teams, which also featured Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, when praising the combined scoring prowess of Philadelphia's James, Jaylen Brown, Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. "The last time they put three 20-point scorers on a team, they said it was unfair, which was the [Warriors] team I was on," Durant said at a USA Basketball event Saturday. "[The 76ers] have got four 25-point scorers on this team. So, hell yeah, I think they're going to be a contender. They're going to be a fun team to watch. It's going to be League Pass-worthy."

Team sources said they believe part of James' hesitancy to ultimately join the Warriors is his history battling the franchise during the dynasty years and how the choice would be viewed from a legacy perspective. "I believe there's more appeal to playing with Steph Curry on a different franchise rather than that franchise," one league source said.
Danny Emerman: "We could only go by what's available, the information available to us. The information available to us in terms of what Steph has said publicly, what people around him have said privately, is that he wants to finish his career as a Warrior. So, I don't see that changing. It's possible that things can change and things can go really sideways and maybe he has a change of heart, but no, the Warriors want him to finish as a Warrior, he wants to finish here."
Danny Emerman: "I have talked to people about this topic broadly. I think Steph hypothetically would be open to taking a pay cut, but I think he would only do so if it would really help the team competitively. If he could take half as much and that would really help get the next huge free agent or make a new trade, I think he would be open to at least considering that."

Draymond Green: "I saw Marcus Thompson come out and say, 'Steph is probably tired of star chasing.' What I want to point out is, probably. So often times people are negative and don't read and don't comprehend. I saw a lot of people like, 'Uh-oh, Steph said he tired of star chasing.' And when I read this, I was like, 'Huh, Steph is probably tired of star chasing.' That's interesting. Probably would mean maybe he is, maybe he isn't. But probably you definitely can't just cross the probably out and be like, 'Tired of star chasing.' That doesn't work."
Oh No He Didn't: Anthony Slater on Draymond Green's comments on his podcast: "I had a source tell me they think LeBron would have been more interested in playing with Steph Curry elsewhere away from the Warriors than actually going to the Warriors just because of the history and they think that's part of the reason they were never ultimately considered"
Shams Charania: "I fully expect there to be contract extension talks come when he's eligible, I believe it's in late August. They're going to discuss an extension, whether it's a one-year or a two-year extension that he's eligible for. They're going to give him one if he wants one. He, to my knowledge, I think there's going to be a desire on his part too. So there's mutual interest there. I think Stephen Curry understands where this organization is, that they're at a crossroads. They've gone after a bunch of stars over the years."
