The Golden State Warriors drafted Steph Curry with the seventh overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft. Since then, the Warriors have won four championships and Curry has won two MVPs and one Finals MVP while breaking the all-time 3-point field goals record.
Most NBA observers have Los Angeles Lakers legend Magic Johnson as the best point guard of all time. However, a player who has played with Curry and LeBron James thinks Curry is the best point guard in NBA history.
Quinn Cook, who won championships with Curry and James, said on Victor Oladipo's podcast that Curry is his best point guard of all time.
"I think he's the greatest point guard of all time," Cook said. "I might be biased, but just to have somebody like that give you confidence and still be tapped into what I'm doing, it means a lot to me.
"I'm a person, like, I only go off what I saw. Not YouTube. Not NBA Hardwood Classics. No disrespect to Magic, I just didn’t see Magic on a nightly basis. I didn’t live through it."

Curry has career averages of 24.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 6.4 assists. He has made 11 All-Star teams and 10 All-NBA teams.
The future Hall of Famer has also won two scoring titles.
James and Curry faced each other in four straight NBA Finals in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, with Curry's Warriors going 3-1 against James' Cleveland Cavaliers.
However, the Cavaliers made NBA history in 2016 by becoming the first team to erase a 3-1 series deficit in the Finals.
Curry and James have won four championships each. The former is looking to win his fifth ring this year, but the Warriors are down 2-1 to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference semifinals and Curry is currently out with a left hamstring injury.
