Golden State Warriors All-Star Steph Curry is known for his shooting and is highly regarded as the greatest shooter in NBA history, which he showcased in the 3-Point Contest. But in the first half of Sunday night’s NBA All-Star Game, Curry did a little more than just knock it down from downtown.

As halftime was approaching, Team LeBron went on a scoring spree to extend its halftime lead to 100-80, including Curry throwing down an alley-oop from Phoenix Suns All-Star Chris Paul.

This was followed by Curry returning the favor and throwing a lob right back to Chris Paul. Curry scored 22 points in the first half, including hitting 6-of-8 from 3.

A three-time NBA champion and the first player to be voted unanimous MVP, Steph Curry was ranked by ESPN as the 13th-best player in league history.

ESPN, continuing with its Top 74 series, released No. 41-74 on Monday and 11-40 on Tuesday.

Curry is near the top, not just for his skill but his impact on the game of basketball itself. Nick Friedell wrote:

The greatest shooter of all time. Curry’s ability to hit shots from all over the floor changed the way the game is played.

Since 2013-14, his first All-Star season, Curry has averaged 26 points, 6.9 assists and 4.8 rebounds per game. Over those six-plus seasons (including five 2019-20 games), he has made 4.2 3-pointers per game on 9.7 attempts, which comes out to a ridiculous 43.1%.

Of the 57 times a player has attempted at least 7.69 3-pointers per game (Curry’s 2012-13 number), Curry has four of the five best shooting percentages and seven of the best 15.

Prior to that 2012-13 season, only 11 times had a player attempted at least that many 3s a game.

This past season alone, 17 players did it. It’s the Curry effect.

Curry’s influence on the game is seen on every level of basketball as younger generations shoot more than ever while trying to replicate his game.

Scoring

Right behind Curry at No. 14 is former Warrior Kevin Durant, a regular-season MVP winner and two-time Finals MVP.

Even if he retired tomorrow, he has stacked an all-time career. His eight years in OKC featured his best individual basketball, with four scoring titles and an MVP.

No matter how you view his two championships with the Warriors — both of which included Finals MVPs — they will forever be high on the bullet points of his overall resume.

Young thinks Durant could climb even higher if he returns from an Achilles injury at near-full strength.

Another title in a less controversial fashion could vault Durant into the top 10, and if he recovers to be even close to his pre-injury self, he could challenge some massive career numbers.

Curry and Durant are the two highest-ranked active players outside of LeBron James.

Curry is the second-highest point guard ranked so far, behind Oscar Robertson at 11, and will likely finish as third-best behind The Big O and Magic Johnson.
