Stephen Curry is a four-time NBA champion and is arguably the best shooter of all time. In the current season, he is averaging 29.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game on a 47.9 Field Goal percentage. However, despite Curry’s exceptional NBA performances, the Warriors are currently 11th in the West with a win-loss ratio of 7-9. Kevin Durant is a two-time NBA champion and is known as arguably the most complete shooter of all time. Standing at almost 7 feet tall, the Phoenix Suns star has been in the league for 15 years. However, the 35-year-old Kevin Durant is showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon as he is currently averaging 31.4 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 5.5 assists on a 53.3 Field Goal percentage. The Phoenix Suns could capitalize on Durant’s numbers as they are currently ranked 5th in the West just after the Dallas Mavericks.

Another NBA player, who is 38 years old but is averaging 14 points and 9.6 assists per game, is GSW point guard, Chris Paul. With the younger generations of NBA athletes taking over the league, some of the NBA veterans continue to prove themselves as the best that the league has ever seen.
