Steph Curry Names One Former Player He Wishes He Could Have Played With
Warriors star Steph Curry did a rapid fire segment with Complex Sports where he answered questions on a number of topics.
One interesting question for Curry was which former player he’d like to play with. For the Golden State star, the answer was obvious.
“Probably Shaq,” Curry said. “Just to see that dominance up close in person.”
O’Neal is one of the greatest big men to ever play the game, thanks to a dominant stretch as Kobe Bryant’s running mate. The 15-time all-star and first-ballot Hall of Famer averaged 23.7 points and 10.9 rebounds over his 19-year career. O’Neal also won four titles: three with the Lakers and one with the Heat alongside Dwyane Wade towards the end of the big man’s prime.
Curry, who also has four titles, is putting together a career with similar accolades to Shaq’s. Curry is undoubtedly a future first-ballot Hall of Famer, and is the league’s all-time three point leader.
It would have been quite the sight to see these two NBA legends playing together, as their contrasting strengths offensively would have made life tough for opposing defenses in today’s game.
