"What's funny for me is, I know what you're about to say, too. I would consider him the best ever," Oladipo said. "And I would consider him that because he's supposed to be playing golf, bro. I mean, really look at him, he's supposed to be playing golf. He's out there and he himalaya out there, bro."
"He's doing his thing. He's changed the game completely, bro. I saw him, I had to guard him, it's really different," he added.
Oladipo emphasized that Curry’s influence goes beyond personal accolades. The Warriors' superstar revolutionized basketball with his deep shooting and off-ball movement, leading to a league-wide shift in offensive strategy.
"He has changed the game so drastically that guys shoot 50 threes per game now, and that's only because of him," Oladipo said. "I’ll give Klay Thompson some credit too, but man, he changed the game completely."
"Their style of playing in Golden State, but man, he changed the game completely, and I have to consider you one of the greats if you change the game like that, if you change the format of how we play as a whole," Oladipo explained.
This season, the Warriors star averages 24.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 6 assists per game while shooting 44.7% from the field and 39.4% from the arc.
The Golden State are 6th in the Western Conference with 41 wins and 30 losses.
