On every ranking and tier list Steph is put above KD. Why is that? Here are their stats since the start of last season

KD: 29.6/6.8/5.1 on 67.2% TS

Steph: 29.5/5.8/5.8 on 66.1% TS

KD has been playing just as well as Steph (arguably better) but he doesn’t ever rated higher. Why?

    For me personally? It’s Steph’s playmaking and limited offensive support. I’m not pretending like KD has had it easy so far with the Suns, but he’s had a few games with Booker, and the Suns as a unit look more competitive than GSW right now. Klay’s talent is fading and Draymond isn’t as good on defense anymore.

      So Steph makes his teammates so much better but he’s also better because he has no help?

      Can’t have it both ways lol

      Since when does playing with a worse team inherently make you a better player?

      I swear I see this logic constantly on this sub(with Luka as well) and it’s so severely flawed

        It’s not “playing with a worse team” it’s “winning with a worse team,” and I think that Steph getting this Warriors team to a manageable record is more impressive than Durant doing something similar with a slightly better roster.
