Additionally, Curry has also praised the fellow basketball champ. In an interview with ESPN, he said, "She's fearless. We know everything kind of centers around her, but she does a great job of scoring at a high level but also being a playmaker and distributor."

Curry added, "When you watch them play, she just adds the element of surprise that you can't really game-plan for. Because it's so unseen in the sense of when she crosses half court, she's in her range."

Later, he talked about her three-point shooting ability and explained, "That's definitely the key: that your mechanics don't change no matter what distance you're shooting from."
