The Golden State Warriors' Stephen Curry is considered by many as the best shooter in the history of basketball. But for former NBA superstar and Philadelphia 76ers legend Allen Iverson, he sees the two-time MVP as one of the five best players of all-time.
The two had a chance to interact with each other during the All-Star Game, and Iverson made sure that Curry knows how he sees him as a player.

Curry and Iverson are two players who revolutionized the game of basketball, and it is nice to see two of the best guards in the history of the league recognize each other's accomplishments.
During the NBA Finals back in 2017, it was Curry who said that he wanted to be like Iverson growing up.
Iverson was in Charlotte during the All-Star festivities to attend the National Basketball Retired Players Association's Legends' Brunch, an event that's being held annually during the All-Star weekend to pay tribute to former NBA players' accomplishments both inside and outside the league.
Pretty much like Iverson, Curry spent most of his career being seen as the underdog. Through his hard work, he was able to elevate not only his game but the Warriors franchise as well. Golden State has been one of the most successful and dominant teams in the league over the past decade, and Curry played a huge role in that.
Now, the Warriors are gunning for their third straight NBA title, something that only three been able to accomplish by three franchises.
Curry wants to help the Dubs become the fourth.
