Steph Curry is in his own right, one of the best players in the world right now, but NBA legend Dwayne Wade took it a step further as he brought up the Golden State Warriors superstar in the Mt. Rushmore conversation of the NBA.
Steph Curry’s career accolades and his incredible one-of-a-kind shooting technique means he is easily one of the best players currently active in the NBA right now.
Four NBA Championships, two regular season MVPs including a unanimous selection means that Curry’s spot is settled as one of the best in the competition at the moment, but NBA legend Dwayne Wade took it a notch higher as he argued that he is one of the best of all time.
Despite his incredible shooting numbers and a career most top players aim to replicate, Curry is often left out of “GOAT” debates but the three-time NBA champion Wade insists on his notion that the American basketball superstar is one of the best players to have ever stepped foot on a basketball court.
The former NBA professional who played most his 16-year-long playing career for the Miami Heat came clean on what he thinks about Curry, in a quote that went viral on social media platforms.
Commenting on an Instagram post about his quote on Curry that said “Everyone keeps talking about what Steph Curry ain’t. But let’s talk about what he is. A bad MFer!” As the quote was reposted by an Instagram fan account, Wade commented on the aforementioned post that the Mount Rushmore of NBA: a pedestal for only the greatest players of all time – should be expanded in order to put Curry’s name in it.
Wade commented: “Expanding the Mount Rushmore and making room for this bad MFer is the only conversation that should be going around about Steph Wardell Curry. Sincerely, Dwayne Wade.”
It certainly helps when someone with the career accolades of Dwyane Wade vouches for your inclusion in the debate regarding the greatest of all time, and it only testifies the incredible influence that Curry has on the sport.
