Once teammates at the Warriors and Team USA, Durant and Curry have expressed respect for each other countless times, and the Suns player recently spoke very highly of Curry.

"He is [the] all-time greatest ever at his position," Durant said after the Suns' 113-112 loss to the Warriors. "Top 5, ever."

The two players played together at the Golden State Warriors in the years between 2016 and 2019, where they won two championships together (in 2017 and 2018).

They were also part of the then-underrated Team USA squad in FIBA World Cup 2010, where the team went undefeated to claim the trophy, and Kevin Durant was named the tournament MVP.

Curry is averaging 28.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 4.8 assists this year.
