The two greatest players of the 2010s era, LeBron James and Steph Curry, could soon play together for the Golden State Warriors.
Curry has spent his entire 17-year NBA career with the Warriors and has one season remaining on his contract.
Meanwhile, James has just departed the Los Angeles Lakers after eight years and has become an unrestricted free agent.
The Warriors are reportedly interested in signing James this summer, a blockbuster move that would go down in history.
James has previously spoken about what it was like to play with Curry for the United States men’s Olympic basketball team.
LeBron James’ previous verdict on playing alongside Steph Curry
LeBron James and Steph Curry are two very different players, but their games are perfectly suited to playing together.
James is one of the best scorers and playmakers in NBA history, whereas Curry is the greatest shooter ever and an incredible ball-handler.
They were unstoppable at the 2024 Summer Olympics, as the USA won the gold medal and James was the tournament MVP.
The former LA Laker spoke glowingly about playing with Curry at the Paris Olympics, describing it as a lifetime memory.
“It was everything and more,” James told NBA.com. “I was super excited to be able to finally team up with him in a win-or-die type atmosphere.
“That’s what it was, being a part of the Olympics. It was everything that I dreamed of and aspired to want, to be a part of that team, along with Steph.
“Great memories. Something that I’ll remember from my basketball career for the rest of my life, for sure.”
James will soon have the opportunity to play with Curry every week if he signs for the Warriors in free agency.
Alongside Draymond Green, Kristaps Porzingis and Jimmy Butler (returning from injury), the Warriors would have an incredible lineup.
The only concern with pairing a 41-year-old James with a 38-year-old Curry will be their ability to stay healthy.
