Giannis Antetokounmpo was asked if he thought himself as the best basketball player in the world. “Do I believe I help my team and teammates get better? Yeah I do. Do I believe I’m the best player in the world? No. Thats the last one standing. Two years ago, yeah. But in my opinion the winner in the best. I believe the best player in the world is Steph Curry until the next player does it.”
On the other side of the country, Curry was asked about the two-time MVP award winner’s word. “I would’ve said the same thing about the champions. I said the same thing about him last year. I appreciate the compliment. It’s not going to soften me at all.” he answered the reporters on Warriors’ Media Day.
