Although the WNBA rookie has not played a single professional game, many expect her to excel given her style of play. Similarly, the Warriors star built a dynasty using the three-point revolution and is regarded as the greatest shooter of all time.<\/p>\n<p>Even with the constant comparison between them, Steph Curry believes that there has to be a line. The two-time MVP shared why it&#8217;s unfair for Clark to be compared to him.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Iowa\u2019s Caitlin Clark has been compared to Steph Curry because of her ability to knock down three-pointers.<\/p>\n<p>Praising her overall skills on the court, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/StephenCurry30?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@StephenCurry30<\/a> tells <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Jerickaduncan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Jerickaduncan<\/a> that the comparison \u201crobs her of the rest of her game.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/QCyuUalZRi\">pic.twitter.com\/QCyuUalZRi<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; CBS Mornings (@CBSMornings) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CBSMornings\/status\/1767537449440363001?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 12, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I think it almost robs her of, like, the rest of her game, because she\u2019s such a good floor, you know, she has her overall, you know, floor game, she\u2019s racking up, you know, close to triple-doubles every night.
