“Steve Kerr Candidly Talks About Stephen Curry’s Comparison to Steve Nash in His Davidson Days”

Back in 2009, the Golden State Warriors chose Stephen Curry as their seventh pick in the NBA Draft. Little did anyone know that he would go on to revolutionize the game of basketball with his incredible skills and become the top three-point shooter of all time. With four NBA titles under his belt, Curry has definitely made a name for himself in the world of basketball.

When nobody else was willing to do so, the Warriors took a chance on the lanky 6-foot-2 Curry. Steve Kerr, currently the team’s head coach, recently revealed what made the franchise believe in Curry enough to select him.

Recently, Curry declared that he is still in the prime of his career and is gearing up for another championship run. The Golden State Warriors have a noticeable weakness in free agency that their coach, Steve Kerr, and team will need to address. Despite his slender build, Curry has managed to maintain his effectiveness on the court thanks to a variety of skills that Kerr noticed early on. According to Kerr, these abilities reminded him of Steve Nash, a former star player for Santa Clara, Dallas Mavericks, and Phoenix Suns.

A fan on Twitter recently shared their thoughts on how scouts underrated Steph Curry’s point guard skills during his college days. According to the fan, scouts seemed to dock him for his exceptional shooting abilities rather than recognizing him as a traditional pass-focused point guard. However, the Warriors saw Curry’s potential as a skilled point guard who was also an excellent shooter, similar to players like Kerr and Nash. With new players like Chris Paul and Tracye Jackson-Davis joining the fold, the Warriors are moving on from Jordan Poole this season.
