Jamal Murray Reveals Toughest Player to Guard in the NBA
Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry is undoubtedly one of the NBA's toughest players to defend. With limitless range and constant movement, opponents often label him the league's toughest cover. When asked recently who is the most difficult player in the NBA to defend, Nuggets star Jamal Murray chose Curry.
It is not uncommon for Curry to see his name brought up in discussions about the NBA's toughest covers. While he doesn't have the height of somebody like Kevin Durant, who also regularly comes up in these discussions, Curry never stops moving, and he can shoot from anywhere. These are two areas of his game the separate him from everybody else, and make him that much more difficult to defend.
Curry's on-ball game is also what makes him so difficult to defend, because while he moves a lot off the ball, his handle and off-the-dribble game is rivaled by few others in the league. It's really this versatility that makes Curry so special, because he can play several different ways, and is elite at all of them.
With the Warriors losing to the Lakers in the Western Conference Semi-Finals, fans missed out on a matchup between Curry and Murray. It would have been a lot of fun to see these two point guards face off, but they will certainly have more battles down the line.
