Golden State Warriors news: Stephen Curry and LeBron James have had their fair share of epic on-court battles through the years. This summer, however, these two living legends will be on the same side as they look to lead Team USA to a gold medal victory in the upcoming Olympic Games.
It is also clear that these two are relishing the opportunity to play alongside each other.
Golden State Warriors News: Stephen Curry Gives LeBron James His Flowers
For his part, there’s no denying that Curry holds LeBron is very high regard. In a recent interview, the GOAT shooter made his thoughts about the NBA’s all-time leading scorer abundantly clear:
“He was the shining star of the future of basketball before he even started high school,” Steph said (h/t Legion Hoops on X, formerly Twitter). “He raised the level of the entire league and has continued to do that. The ultimate champion.”
No lies detected here.
Speaking of championships, both Curry and LeBron have four titles to their respective names. At this point, there’s no way to tell which of them will get to five first — or if either of them ever will.
Right now, though, they are both working toward a single goal, which is to come back home to the United States with a gold medal around their necks.
