When Stephen Curry entered the league as the seventh overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft, not many expected him to become the player that he is today.
Being a lottery pick, Curry was expected to be a solid starter in the league for years, but no one could have predicted that the Golden State Warriors superstar would change the way that the game of basketball is played in the modern era.
Curry’s insane prowess in shooting from beyond the three-point line made him a legend.
The cherry on the top is the fact that Curry helped the Warriors win four NBA Championships during his career.
With that said, Draymond Green recently announced that he believes Stephen Curry is a top-five player in NBA history via his official Twitter handle.
30 Top 5 All Time. He not 5!

On top of claiming that Steph is one of the top five players in NBA history, Green also proudly stated that Curry is not number five on that list.
When it comes to the debates about the greatest basketball players of all time, the number one and two spots are usually taken by Michael Jordan and LeBron James.
The remaining three spots are usually open for discussion among NBA fans.
Over the years, Stephen Curry has slowly but surely sneaked into the debate for one of the top five players to ever play in the NBA.
After all, winning four NBA Champions, one NBA Finals MVP, two NBA MVPs, and multiple other accolades gives Curry one of the best resumes of all time.
