After all, future Hall of Famers Stephen Curry and LeBron James, who have had plenty of battles in the NBA Finals in the past, are teaming up in a competitive setting for the first time in their careers.
Curry and James wasted no time showing that they have impeccable chemistry on the court after they combined for an epic highlight in the third quarter of their exhibition game against Team Canada on Wednesday night. With Canada going on a bit of a run to trim their lead to five, Team USA answered back with a 6-0 spurt that was punctuated by an incredible alley-oop from Curry to James in transition.
The sheer star power in that fastbreak is phenomenal, and both Stephen Curry and LeBron James ran that transition opportunity to perfection for Team USA. James retrieved the ball, dished it off to a flanking Curry, who lobbed it up right in the waiting arms of the Los Angeles Lakers star.
