Overview

• Coverage published today presents Iverson’s list while noting inconsistent attribution on where he said it, with some reports pointing to Shaquille O’Neal’s The Big Podcast and others to a CBS News interview with Maurice Dubois.
• Iverson singled out Curry with the praise, “I’ve never seen anything like him before,” underscoring the guard’s unprecedented shooting and style.
• Analyses justified Curry’s inclusion by citing four NBA titles, two MVPs, a Finals MVP and the all-time three-point record as evidence of lasting influence.
• Observers highlighted notable omissions commonly found on historical lists, including Bill Russell, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird.
• The remarks surfaced during media appearances tied to Iverson’s memoir, Misunderstood, adding fresh fuel to ongoing debates about cross-era greatness.
