Recently, the remarks of former Nuggets player Michael Porter Jr. have caused huge controversy again. What did he say this time? Porter Jr. said bluntly: Only Curry's shooting skills in the league are better than mine.

This offseason, the Nuggets sent Porter Jr. and a first-round pick to the Nets, and finally exchanged for Cameron Johnson. After leaving the Nuggets, Porter Jr. seemed to have become a different person. He once made a series of surprisingly crazy remarks on the show - "My brother is addicted to gambling, and my weakness is a woman", "Just just play a fake ball, your brother will get rich", "Denver is the biggest wife swap place", "I can always beat the Lakers, and it feels great to eliminate James in the playoffs"...

Now when talking about who is better in the league than me, Porter Jr. said: Stephen Curry - This is the only person I will clearly admit to shooting better than me. There are also people who may be on the same level: for example, Clay, KD, and Duncan Robinson, who may be able to compete with me. And Trae Young, Lillard. But I think only Curry is the shooter who obviously shot better than me.

Curry is the best scorer in NBA history. He made 9,589 three-pointers in his career, made 4,058 hits, and shot up to 42.3%. He won four championships and 11 selected for the All-Star lineup with his dominance from the outside.

Port Jr. publicly stated that Curry is the only one in the league to shoot better than his own; so far, Porter Jr.'s three-point shooting percentage is 40.6%, Durant's three-point shooting percentage is 39%, Clay's three-point shooting percentage is 41.1%, Lillard's three-point shooting percentage is 37.1%, Trae Young's three-point shooting percentage is 35.2%, and Dunro's three-point shooting percentage is 39.7%.
