1. Steph and Seth Curry

The Splash Brothers are how we refer to the dynastic shooting of the Golden State Warriors in recent years. But it can also be a nickname for literal brothers Stephen and Seth Curry, the best in the league.

What is there left to say about older brother Stephen, a legend who forever changed the way the game of basketball was played? He’s the best three-point shooter in the history of the NBA and one of the league’s great all-time winners.

The reigning champions have started this year in a lull, but Steph has been trying to single-handedly carry them to brighter days. He’s averaging 32.8 points per game and hitting 44.7 percent of his threes, which, remarkably, is above his career average.

Seth is not Steph, but that shouldn’t obscure the former’s impact on his team and the league. While Steph has played his whole career with one team, Seth has more or less done the opposite. He was involved in the James Harden-Ben Simmons swap that landed him in Brooklyn last year, his eighth NBA team.

Steph may be the greatest three-point shooter ever, but Seth is right up there, ranking third in NBA history in career three-point percentage. He’s averaging 8.3 points per game, but embodying his role perfectly with a 38.7 percent efficiency from distance.

At some point, the Curry brothers’ reign of terror over perimeter defenses will come to a close. Until that day, they need to have respect put on their names as the best brotherly duo in the league.
