Locks for the Hall of Fame
Stephen Curry: 2-time MVP, 3-time champion, FIBA gold medalist (international play is also taken into account), has shattered multiple NBA 3-point records, a member of the elite 50-40-90 club, and has changed the game for a new generation.
Curry’s impact on the game of basketball is something that can not be denied. He has been arguably the most influential player the NBA has seen.
He’s definitely a lock to be in the Hall of Fame one day and will be remembered long after his career is over regardless of what the HOF says.
Kevin Durant: NBA MVP, 2-time champion, 2-time Finals MVP, 2-time Olympic gold medalist, 9-time All-Star, named to 8 All-NBA teams, and has 4 scoring titles.
Durant is in the conversation for being the greatest scorer in the history of basketball. His versatility on offense is unmatched. The league has never witnessed a player of his height with superb ball handling and shooting ability.
What’s scary is that he’s only 29 years old, and bound to add a lot more to his already impressive résumé. If you give me a ballot, I’d vote him in right now.
