The Golden State Warriors have an elite point guard in Stephen Curry, but where does he rank among other NBA guards?

Ever since he rose to stardom in the 2012-13 NBA season, Stephen Curry has been a top tier point guard. Leading the Golden State Warrior to five consecutive NBA Finals and winning three championships, not many can compete with Curry’s legendary status.

Curry is a two-time MVP and a six-time All-NBA member for a reason. His efficiency from the field and his ability to control a game are picture-perfect. The Warriors have enjoyed much success riding the Curry’s wave.

As for the rest of the NBA, elite point guards are popping up all over the place. The guard position is more explosive than ever with numerous generational talents emerging. The future of the league is bright with young stars such as Trae Young, D’Angelo Russell and De’Aaron Fox.

But, what about the stars who are already established? Is Curry still at the top of the totem pole, or has he been surpassed? Let’s break down a list of the top five point guards in the league and see where Curry ranks.
