Many superstars have etched their names in the Golden State Warriors’ history. In the modern era, two names stand out, especially due to their current form in the NBA. The top MVP candidates from each of the conferences, Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry.

Although Durant had a short stint with the Warriors, he won two championships in his three seasons at Golden State. Moreover, he won back-to-back Finals MVP Awards even though Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson were on the same teams.

And well, everything Curry has done in his NBA career is incredible. So who would you choose among these two stars, if you were the general manager of an NBA franchise? NBA legend Dwyane Wade gave his two cents on this question.

Here’s why Dwyane Wade chooses Stephen Curry over Kevin Durant

On one hand, he had the greatest shooter of all time, and on the other, arguably the most unstoppable scorer of all time. This was indeed a tough choice for Wade. Hence, Wade admitted, “That’s a tough one, I’m gonna go with Steph.”

And when Patrick asked why, he said, “Well, it won’t make any sense. You can close your eyes and pick. But I guess I went with Steph because Steph has kind of revolutionized the sport you know. He’s one of those Mount Rushmores from the sense of changing the game the way he has. And so, I give him that little a little nod.”
