There's like a group of like four that I'm picking from right now and it's really, really, really, really, really hard... I'm gonna say James. "

Many fans and media like to debate who the best players are of all time, so hearing Curry's five best players from his era will likely spark debates on shows and social media.

Every player he chose has won multiple NBA Championships except for James Harden, who has yet to win a title in his 15 seasons.

Curry is coming off another outstanding season where he averaged 26.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists per contest while shooting 45.0% from the field and 40.8% from the three-point range in 74 games.

At 36, he is still an MVP-caliber player, but the Warriors lost to the Sacramento Kings in the play-in tournament, so they missed the NBA playoffs.
