He is already one of the best himself
Steph Curry, a prominent figure in basketball, is admired by many players who dream of being his teammate. However, Curry himself has expressed his own aspirations regarding whom he wishes to play alongside.
In a candid conversation on his new “Heat Check” podcast, he revealed these insights while talking to his father. This exclusive discussion provides fans with a glimpse into the mind of the Golden State Warriors’ star point guard, showcasing the high regard he holds for certain players.
In a smooth-flowing conversation with his father, Dell Curry, Steph Curry revealed his dream teammate: Tim Duncan.
“Tim Duncan. I saw the tail end of his career when I played in one playoff series against him. He’s obviously one of the greatest power forwards in the history of the league. When you have somebody who played for the same franchise his whole career and was a guy that, no matter at what point in your career you play with him, everybody has just amazing things to say about his leadership ability,” Curry shared.
“He’s a true champion and a winner. I know a lot goes into that, and it’s hard to just put a sound bite on it, but it’d be awesome to play with him,” he continued.
Curry remains one of the best
For those familiar with Curry’s many interviews, his choice of Tim Duncan as his dream teammate will come as no surprise. In 2023, when asked to name his dream team, Curry selected Duncan as his favorite ever center.
Recently, Kevin Durant also mentioned Curry while discussing the potential participation of Team USA’s top players for the 2028 LA Olympics. Durant stated, “I mean, these guys are still playing at an elite level. Like Bron could play four or five more years.
He might be here in ’28 in LA. Steph is still playing great ball, and I’m doing alright too. So I don’t want to look at it that way. I think we still got some good ball in the tank,” Durant told reporters after facing Canada.
