The relationship between Stephen Curry and LeBron James has taken on an entirely different level after their historic team-up for Team USA in the 2024 Paris Olympics. Once longtime rivals on the hardwood thanks to four straight tussles between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals, Curry and James have built such a strong mutual respect for each other and an admiration over what has made them the most successful superstars over the past 15 years.
Curry and James showed natural chemistry on the court as well; their playstyles synergize perfectly, with the latter acting as a playmaking/rim-pressure hub while the former is spacing the floor with his generational gravity. The two, alongside Kevin Durant, took center stage in the Olympics, leading Team USA to a gold medal and thereby vindicating their decision to join forces.
Now that Stephen Curry has had a taste of what it feels like to play with someone of LeBron James’ caliber, the Warriors star could not have enough of the experience. In fact, Curry wishes for more adventures with the Los Angeles Lakers star in whatever time there is left for them in their Hall of Fame careers.
