The NBA All-Star Game is always a lot of fun, especially when longtime rivals get to become teammates for the night. While Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry and Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James are great friends off the court, they also have one of the best on-court rivalries of all-time.
Facing off in the NBA Finals each year from 2015-2018, Curry and James had some incredible battles on the game’s biggest stage. The two stars faced off again the 2021 play-in tournament, and then again in last year’s Western Conference Semi-Finals series.
Now teammates for the 2024 All-Star Game, James and Curry embraced each other in the locker room, with Curry sharing a simple message for James:
“It never gets old,” Curry said as the two legends greeted each other.
This was similar to the message Curry shared for James after their most recent battle, when the Warriors star asked the Lakers star, “How does it keep getting better?”
This was of course after the Lakers took down the Warriors in a double overtime battle, a game in which both Curry and James were absolutely incredible. Far and away the greatest players of this generation, Curry and James have defined this era of basketball.
Teammates for the night, Curry and James will look to lead their squad to an All-Star Game victory on Sunday.
