After his recent statement praising Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry, Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo has generated quite a bit of buzz in the NBA community. On Sunday, he described Curry as the best player in the NBA and it kickstarted a lot of discussions.

As a result, we can see quite a conversation taking place in the NBA as well as on social media. Curry learned about this during Warriors Media Day on Sunday, and he expressed his appreciation for the compliment.

His first reaction upon hearing the news was to thank the media and the Bucks player. Based on Curry’s performance last season, he stood out as one of the best players. And his form speaks for itself. In Giannis’s opinion, the winner of the playoffs wears the crown of the king.

Curry’s performance in the 2021-22 season was among the best. There was no greater moment in Warriors history than winning four titles within the span of a decade. In the course of the conversation, Curry discussed this and shared his thoughts on it.

“We all want to win the championship, and when you look at the team that’s the last team standing and who was playing the best — I was thinking the same thing about him last year, coming off their run,” Curry responded.

Moreover, he also mentioned saying. “I appreciate the compliment, it’s not gonna soften me up to get complacent at all, but you do appreciate the respect of your peers.” Curry refuses to get complacent even when a $228 million ex-MVP heaps praise on him.

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s calls Stephen Curry the best NBA player

Following the season’s end and the off-season start, the team is in full preparation mode for the new season. It is especially tough for the Warriors to replicate their success with heightened expectations from fans.

According to ESPN’s annual list of the top 100 NBA players, the Bucks star has a different ranking. Giannis was the best basketball player in the league at this point, according to this report. Nonetheless, if we look at Giannis‘s theory, Curry did end the season in the top spot. The next season will certainly be exciting to watch.
