Curry, on the other hand, has established himself as one of the most exceptional shooters in NBA history by helping the Golden State Warriors win three NBA championships.

Curry and Neymar engaged in lighthearted banter and laughter as they talked about their individual paths to becoming sports legends. They took a minute in this unusual interview environment to commend one another’s opponents who have had a major influence on their own careers.

Curry and Neymar demonstrated their extraordinary basketball and football skills, with Neymar mentioning in particular how Messi and Ronaldo impacted his own development. Neymar explained in an article in The Players’ Tribune how he developed and learned new skills by playing with his idol, Lionel Messi.

Neymar emphasized the demanding nature of Ronaldo, calling him a “monster” on the pitch, which keeps teammates on their toes and ready.
