Paul George Shares Incredibly High Praise for Steph Curry

In this story:
It is undeniable that Golden State Warriors superstar Steph Curry has changed the game of basketball. Curry‘s impact on the NBA is rivaled by few who have ever played the game, and this impact often gets cited when discussing Curry's place on all-time rankings. During a recent episode of Podcast P, which is presented by Wave Sports and Entertainment, LA Clippers star Paul George talked about Curry's impact on the game.
"You're a GOAT to me if the league changed because of you," George said. "With Steph, the threes being shot, the range of people shooting threes, Steph transcended the game."
George believes there are multiple NBA GOATs, due to the impact that so many of the game's legends have made. Mentioning Curry in that conversation, George believes the combination of his career resume and his overall impact makes him one of the GOATs.
There are differing opinions when it comes to GOAT debates, and there will certainly be some who push back against George's idea of multiple players in that conversation; however, there is no denying that Steph Curry has indeed changed the game of basketball. The greatest shooter ever, and one of the greatest players ever, Curry's impact on basketball is hard to measure.
Having competing against the Warriors star for years, Paul George has a lot of respect for Steph Curry.
