Stephen Curry put on a show on Friday night as he led the Golden State Warriors to arguably their most important win of the season in Game 4 of the 2022 NBA Finals against the Boston Celtics, 107-97. The odds were stacked against Curry and Co., but the greatest shooter of all time was able to find a way to carry his team to a huge victory.
Unsurprisingly, Steph's all-time performance drew some high praise from in and around the NBA. One of his loudest supporters came in the form of future Hall of Famer Dwyane Wade. The three-time NBA champ was so impressed with the Warriors star's epic showing that Wade went as far as saying that Curry should be on the Mount Rushmore of basketball:
“Expanding the Mount Rushmore and making room for this bad MFer is the only conversation, that should be going around about Stephen Wardell Curry . Sincerely Dwyane Wade,” he wrote in his comment.

For those that require context, the Mount Rushmore reference pertains to being one of the GOATs of the game. There are only four spots on the mountain, but for his part, Wade firmly believes that a fifth should be added to accommodate the Warriors superstar.
After what we saw from Stephen Curry on Friday, it's hard to argue against Wade's bold claim here.
