NBA All-Star thinks Warriors’ Curry is “polished version” of “vintage Steph” | Sporting News

Stephen Currys heroics at the Paris Olympics this summer have been well documented .

His lethal display of shooting was so impressive that Karl Anthony Towns was inspired to immediately go get shots up.

I have never seen a man that made me get off my ass off the couch and made me go start shooting basketballs, said Towns .

Curry scored 60 points while making 63 percent of his three-pointers over Team USAs final two games en route to gold.

He put the United States on his back, draining difficult shot after difficult shot, and proved he is still the most lethal three-point shooter in the world.

Ive played against prime vintage Steph, and there was so much talent he had, but to watch what he did against France that was like vintage Steph at its most polished version, expert level.

He wasnt just making shots by talent; it was making shots off of calculated precision, said Towns.

Curry is ready to carry an overlooked Golden State team this season and hopes his greatness can translate into team success.

He still has a lot to give and will have to put up MVP-type numbers this year if he wants to be a championship contender.

I feel refreshed and rejuvenated.

Taking advantage of this preseason getting our reps.

We have good vibes over here.

It is crazy going into year 16 a lot of miles, but I still feel like I got a lot left in the tank, said Curry .

If anyone can continue to play at an extremely high level well beyond his prime it is the all-time NBA three-point leader.

While athleticism fades, the ability to shot the ball does not, and Currys game will continue to evolve with age.
