The

25-26 season has officially begun, and the 37-year-old veteran Curry will also usher in his 17th season of his career. Among the active players, there are very few players who are older than Curry and who have been playing longer than Curry, only veterans such as James, Paul, Lowry, and Horford.

Curry has not only played in the NBA for 17 years, but is still one of the top players in the league. He is also regarded as a top ten player in the league in the new season. In addition, Curry has only played for the Warriors in his career and has never changed teams.

In NBA history, there are only a handful of players who have played for only one team in their career and have reached at least 17 seasons. Curry has only seven, and the other six are Nowitzki, Kobe, Haslem, Duncan, Stockton, and Reggie Miller. These are also typical representatives of one-person, one-city clubs. In addition, Carl Malone and Olajuwon also played for the Jazz and the Rockets for more than 17 years respectively, but they joined other teams at the end of their careers, and they missed the chance to be one person and one city.

Curry is not only a member of the One-Man, One City Club, but also led the Warriors to the Finals 6 times and won 4 championships, making the Warriors a dynasty team. One person and one city can create a dynasty team, which is even more rare. Curry is also the third player in history to play for the parent team for 17 years and win at least 4 championships after Duncan and Kobe.

Duncan and Kobe are not only representatives of one person and one city, but also created a dynasty, leading the Spurs and the Lakers to five championships respectively. They are also recognized as the top ten superstars in history. Curry is now regarded as a superstar in the top ten in quasi-history. If he can win another championship before retirement, he will have great hope of entering the top ten in history.

In addition, if Curry plays until he retires until he is 40 years old, he is expected to play for the Warriors for 20 years and become another player who has played for a team for 20 years after Nowitzki, Kobe and Haslem. Even Duncan only played for the Spurs for 19 years, but failed to reach 20 years.

It is worth mentioning that Curry is older than Durant, but Durant entered the NBA in 2007, while Curry only participated in the draft in 2009 and became an older rookie. If Curry enters the NBA with Durant, the new season will be his 19th season. If he plays until he is 40 years old, he will be able to play until his 22nd season like James.
