Stephen Curry is widely considered the greatest shooter in NBA history, so naturally, he is also the Golden State Warriors' best shooter of all time, right? While it might be hard to say, Klay Thompson can do nothing but admit it.

Thompson was Serge Ibaka's latest guest in his show “How Hungry Are You,” during which the veteran guard was asked by the Milwaukee Bucks big man who–in his opinion–is the “best shooter in Warriors history.”

While Klay tried to go around it and saying Rick Barry could be in the conversation, Ibaka hilariously told him just to give his opinion. Many were probably waiting to hear him say his name, but he couldn't just snub his Splash Bro. that way. After all, Curry already broke the record for most career 3-pointers, and he continues to pull away from the rest of the pack with his scoring exploits.

“I gotta go Steph man. The guy, 400 threes in a season,” Thompson shared before saying “that's hard to do.”

Klay Thompson certainly has a case, though. He has a lot of 3-point records that even Stephen Curry might find hard to beat, like his most 3-pointers in a game (14), in a half (10) and in a quarter (9). When it comes to the ability to get hot from distance and drill those triples, Klay is second to none.

It is also likely that had he not missed the past two years due to injury, he is already in the Top 10 or Top 5 for most triples in NBA history. At the time of writing, he is at 18th with 1890 triples made.

Stephen Curry is considered the GOAT shooter for a reason. More than his numbers, he is the one who revolutionized the game as he showed that 3-point shooting can be a massive weapon by doing it so efficiently. He is a major reason why the Dubs' dominated the mid-2010s, and he has two MVP awards to show for that.

Props to Klay for making that admission despite how hard it is for him to say it. For what it's worth, he will definitely go down as one of the greatest shooters to ever do it in the history of the league.
