Why Curry is the modern Michael Jordan
Sports Brief earlier reported on Warriors Steve Kerr comparing Curry to Michael Jordan, calling him the modern Michael Jordan after the point guard received MVP chants against the Washington Wizards.
With 28 seconds left in the game, Curry was greeted with loud MVP chants after an epic performance at the Capitol One Arena. As Curry was getting ready to take a free throw, he smiled as the intensity of the chants continued to grow.
Kerr played with Jordan at the Chicago Bulls in their heydays in the 1990s and has been coaching Curry for nine seasons now.
