“A lot of people don’t talk about Stephen Curry and his conditioning enough”: Lonzo Ball

Lonzo Ball is considered to be a good perimeter defender. He is often given the task of guarding the opponent’s best players. He recently revealed the one trait of Stephen Curry’s success that usually goes overlooked. Ball gave a lot of credit to the Warriors leader’s outlandish conditioning. Post the Pelicans 108-103 win over GSW, Lonzo explained:

“A lot of credit goes to his conditioning. I don’t think a lot of people talk about it enough. He’s constantly moving. He can shoot it from anywhere. It’s a tough challenge, but you got to step up to the plate and do what you can.”

Truly, Curry’s fabulous capability to run without the ball, and make plays off-ball is something that is commendable. While not being showed up in the statline, only defenders know and respect this unique aspect of Steph’s game.
