Unquestionably, Stephen Curry is the greatest long-distance shooter the sport has ever witnessed. The Golden State Warriors leader has revolutionized the NBA, being responsible for the league to throw more threes than ever.
At age 33, Steph has already established himself as an all-time great and one of the best ever to play PG. With several impressive feats under his belt, Chef Curry has a stacked resume – 8 All-Star appearances, 7 All-NBA selections, 2 MVPs, 2 scoring titles, and 3 championships.

“There’s a lot on the line”: Max Kellerman on Stephen Curry winning the Finals MVP
In a recent appearance on ESPN’s “KJM”, Kellerman spoke about how Steph’s legacy won’t get worse if he doesn’t win the FMVP but will enhance if he does end up winning it. Max explained:
“Listen, Steph Curry is playing on a team where Klay is coming off a catastrophic injury, he’s getting older, Dray’s getting older. Steph’s coming off an injury. KD’s not there anymore.
What there seems to be to me, a lot on the line for Steph and his legacy… When I say that, I think of both outcomes. If he doesn’t get it done, is his legacy going to get worse? No… but now compare it to what he does. What if the Warriors go all the way this year, and Steph wins Finals MVP. It gets enhanced. It does. There’s a lot on the line.”
