After teaming with LeBron James to win Olympic gold over the summer, Stephen Curry expressed his hope that he and James will be able to share the court for more big moments in the future.
Speaking to Natasha Dye of People, Curry reflected on the Olympic experience and what it was like to finally be teammates with LeBron, saying:
“All the battles we’ve had on the court and the back and forth, the fact that we actually got to be teammates, not just in any game like an All-Star Game or whatever, but in high-stakes basketball with a lot on the line. … I think there’s a deepened respect and friendship there.”
The Golden State Warriors star went on to add, “Hopefully, there will be more experiences in the future, even if we’re teammates or not,” before saying that he and James “still have to compete against each other until it’s all over.”
While fans have long imagined what it would be like for James and Curry to be on the same NBA team, there is no indication that it could happen any time soon, if at all.
Because of that, fans may just have to settle for Curry’s Warriors and James’ Los Angeles Lakers doing battle in significant Western Conference games during the upcoming season.
