“A incredibly preferred participant in the course of my time up there, Monta Ellis was traded and to me, that opened up [Curry’s] skill to develop into who he is nowadays. I assume it created him far more confident. They were not a good, I believe, pair together, and they had been both equally terrific players, really marvelous players. But I think Steph was the man or woman that had the most development left in him, and when Monta remaining, you happen to be viewing Steph Curry of these days.”
