Michael Jordan Says Steph Curry Isn’t a Hall of Famer Yet: ‘Still a Great Player’
Written by SOURCE on October 22, 2019
While speaking to Craig Melvin on Today, Michael Jordan said that Steph Curry still has a ways to go before he deserves to be a Hall of Famer.
Jordan was asked by Melvin if he would amend the list of players he said would be unbeatable in a pickup game in a promotion for NBA 2K14 back in 2013. At the time, Jordan picked Hakeem Olajuwon, Magic Johnson, Scottie Pippen, and James Worthy. The NBA legend said that he wouldn’t change the lineup even though six years had passed since he made the list. “When I’m going in the trenches, I played against and with all these guys. I’m going with who I know,” Jordan said.
Melvin replied: “So, Steph Curry shouldn’t be offended when he watches this.”
And then Jordan said this of the Golden State Warriors star and three-time NBA champion: “I hope not. He’s still a great player. Not a Hall of Famer yet though.”
