Danny Emerman reflects on the significant achievements of NBA superstars LeBron James, Steph Curry, and Kevin Durant during a summer in Paris. Each player has recently reached milestones in their careers, with James turning 40, Curry and Durant at 36, and all showing signs of contemplating retirement. The article highlights their impressive performances leading up to the All-Star Game and discusses the likelihood that they will not finish their careers together, despite past trade considerations and lingering feelings. Emerman urges fans to appreciate their remaining time together on the court.
Curry's Nuit-Nuit game-winner will be in his Hall of Fame montage, Durant cemented himself as the greatest Team USA player ever and James brought it all together.
In the week before the All-Star Game, Durant became the seventh player in league history to cross the 30,000-point threshold. Curry strung together four straight 30-plus point games for the first time since 2021.
They'd been together through numerous battles and victories, and now face the reality that this may be among their last moments as teammates.
It's cliche at this point to say we should cherish James, Curry and Durant while they're still hooping. But it's true. And they've realized it, too.
