Point Guard: Stephen Curry

There’s no shocker who the starting point guard of the Golden State Warriors in 2020 will be. It will be Stephen Curry who has been the team’s star point guard since he arrived to the franchise back in 2009.

Curry, 32, hasn’t played a meaningful NBA game in 538 days due to a series of unfortunate injuries, but he is back and ready to attack the 2020-2021 season.

Curry will be asked to carry the team as his fellow three-point shooting assassin Klay Thompson will be forced to the sidelines for a second consecutive season.

He is still one of the best three-point shooters in the NBA and is eager to silence any critics that are mentioning that he’s past his prime and nearing the tail end of his career.

Curry, in his career, has averaged 23.5 points per game, 4.5 rebounds per game, and 6.6 assists per game while shooting just over 40 percent from the floor, 90 percent from the stripe, and 43 percent from beyond the arc.
