Sacramento Kings Reveal Honest Answer About Guarding Steph Curry

Guarding Steph Curry is one of the most impossibly hard tasks in the NBA. It's not an individual task, but a whole team task. The Sacramento Kings know just how hard it's going to be, from top to bottom.

“He’s a guy that, if you show him the same thing over and over again, he can kill you,” Kings coach Mike Brown said. “Even if you change it up, he can kill you. He’s a tough cover for anybody.”

Both Steph Curry and Kevin Huerter are types of players that require being chased around for the entire game. Curry has a level of movement that very few players in NBA history have been able to replicate. Kevin Huerter, who is fantastic in his own right, knows how hard that is to guard.

“It’s super hard to guard him,” Kevin Huerter said. “The movement he has, what he does for their offense, the attention he garners both with the ball and without the ball is super tough. Obviously, everybody knows that he makes that offense go, so we just gotta be super locked in.”

A series between the Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors are likely going to set record-breaking offense. Both teams are going to be playing more offense than defense, and Kevin Huerter knows that.

“That’s something this series I think everyone’s aware of,” Huerter said. “Both teams play with a super high pace. They’re a team that’s kinda known to play up and down, super fast. They’ve been doing it for years. They’ve worn other teams out doing it. I think we’re ready for it. We just gotta throw a lot of different bodies at [Curry]."

The Golden State Warriors and Sacramento King tipoff at 5:30 pm PST on April 15. Grab your popcorn.
