Guess who landed a spot on the All-NBA third team? That's right, Steph Curry! It's the 10th time his name's been up there, showing he's still a force to be reckoned with in the league.
Curry's been on fire, averaging 26.4 points, 5.1 assists, and 4.5 rebounds per game. Plus, he led the league in 3-pointers made with a whopping 357!
Now, let's check out the lineup for the All-NBA teams. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Luka Doncic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Jayson Tatum made the First Team. Second Team includes Jalen Brunson, Anthony Davis, Kevin Durant, Anthony Edwards, and Kawhi Leonard. And rounding out the Third Team, we've got Devin Booker, Tyrese Haliburton, Domantas Sabonis, LeBron James, and of course, Curry.
Curry might not have snagged any first-team votes this time, but he got 13 for the second team and a whopping 78 for the third. That brings his tally to 10 All-NBA appearances in just 15 seasons! And get this, he's only one of 28 players in history to achieve that milestone. Talk about elite company!
Speaking of elite, let's talk legends. We're talking Kobe, MJ, Tim Duncan — the greats. And now, add Curry to that list. Zaza Pachulia, Curry's former teammate, can't stop singing his praises. With Curry entering his 16th season and still playing at the top of his game, it's clear he's cementing his legacy among the NBA greats.
But Curry's not resting on his laurels. Nope, he's still pushing himself to get better, whether it's bulking up to take more hits or fine-tuning his shooting stroke. And with the advancements in sports science and training, there's talk he could go for another five seasons, aiming for that 20-year mark.
Of course, the big question is, how long can Curry keep this up? Sure, he's a superstar, but even the best need support. The Warriors need to surround him with more talent to keep their championship dreams alive. After all, as incredible as Curry is, nobody can carry a team single-handedly forever.
