Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Oddly enough, it’s Jordan Poole who may be the one to extend Curry’s career. He’s a playmaker – 11:02 PM

Curry in transition is frightening. – 11:01 PM

Obviously, defending Steph Curry is no easy task, but just how tough is it? Matisse Thybulle explains how hard it is. #Sixers sixerswire.usatoday.com/2021/11/25/six… via @SixersWire #NBA – 1:45 PM

More on this storyline

Nets star Kevin Durant said it “means the world” to him to pass Hall of Famer Allen Iverson for 25th on the NBA’s all-time scoring list during Brooklyn’s 123-104 victory over the Celtics here at TD Garden on Wednesday night. “I mean, it means the world. I dedicated my life to this game at an early age … so I watched all these guys that I’m like passing up,” Durant said after scoring 21 points for the Nets, who improved to an Eastern Conference-leading 14-5. -via ESPN / November 25, 2021

“I wanted to be like them. I wanted to be in the NBA like them, and make an impact in the league like them. So Iverson, he was the pantheon for me. One of those guys that I emulated every time I went outside and played with my friends. It’s all surreal. I pictured I would be in the league, and had an idea … but to do it is pretty special.” For Durant, the meaning of passing Iverson is two-fold. Not only was he a kid when Iverson first exploded onto the NBA scene in the 1996-97 season, but growing up in the Washington, D.C., area, he got a front-row seat to Iverson’s college exploits at Georgetown. -via ESPN / November 25, 2021

Isiah Thomas: Congratulations @StephenCurry30 for passing me in scoring keep moving the game forward @warriors -via Twitter @IsiahThomas / November 17, 2021
