2015 NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala, while appearing on an episode of Breakfast Club, claimed that Stephen Curry changed the game. His comments were his way of highlighting a positive impact he has had on the league apart from his three-point shooting.

Iguodala pointed out: "You can have joy now, you can laugh and you can play. That’s like a real generational effect that comes from one dude and it's something special. Like I said, you got to give people their flowers while they're here. He (Stephen Curry) revolutionized the game."

Curry is known around the world as perhaps the greatest three-point shooter in the game. However, it is not only his efficiency from downtown that has made him a global superstar but also his cheerful nature that has entranced the whole world.

NBA teams Stephen Curry has most regular season wins against

In honor of one of the most entertaining players the league has ever seen, we take a look at five NBA teams that Chef Curry has recorded the most regular season wins against.

#5 Pheonix Suns (25 wins)

The Phoenix Suns are definitely one of the best Western Conference teams in the league at the moment. With the help of their star duo Devin Booker and Chris Paul, they dominated their division and conference in 2020-21 and reached the NBA Finals only to be defeated by the Giannis Antetokounmpo-led Milwaukee Bucks.

The Valley of the Suns are one of Stephen Curry's favorite opponents. In his 39 matches against the team, the Warrior star has won 25 games. In his total matches against the Suns, the baby-faced assassin averaged 22.1 points and 6.5 assists per game.

#4 Sacramento Kings (26 wins)

The Sacramento Kings were a playoff contender team until the early 2000s. Post that, the 1951 NBA champions have never played a single post-season game. Meanwhile, Curry has played in seven playoff series, appeared in five consecutive NBA Finals and won three championships.

It's safe to assume that the Kings very rarely win in their match-up against the Stephen Curry-led team from San Francisco. In his 35 matches against the city of Sacramento, he has won 26 games and scored a total of 805 points.

Stephen Curry defeated both the New Orleans Pelicans and the Sacramento Kings for a total of 26-times. However, his winning percentage was much higher in his match-ups against the Pelicans.

Curry, a two-time MVP, registered a total of 840 points in his 32 games against New Orleans. He also maintained a free throw percentage of 93.8% against them by converting 4.3 of 4.5 attempts per game from the free throw line.

Stephen Curry showed no mercy for the Pelicans as he averaged a whooping 26.3 points per game against them, the highest points average on this list.

#2 Minnesota Timberwolves (27 wins)

Reasonably speaking, the Minnesota Timberwolves are one of the most unsuccessful NBA franchises. They have made only nine playoff appearances in their entire history and have also reached the finals only once, which was also their only time clearing the first round of the playoffs.

So their matches against a team as formidable as the Warriors, led by a fearsome scorer like Stephen Curry, rarely resulted in a Timberwolves victory. In fact, Curry has the best winning percentage on the list against Minnesota. He won 27 of of his 33 games against the team, which translates to a 81.8 win percentage.

Curry averaged 25.6 points, 7.6 assists and five rebounds per game against the Wolves.

#1 LA Clippers (29 Wins)

Stephen Curry is undoubtedly one of the greatest scorers of the 21st century and has humbled almost every team in the league countless times. However, he has not punished any team as much as the LA Clippers.

The Clippers are not a weak team and have been regular playoff contenders, at least during Chef Curry's career. Yet the Baby-Faced Assassin has dropped a total of 1001 points against them. He has met them on the battlefield 41 times and defeated the Clippers a record 29-times.

In his 41 games, Stephen Curry also registered an average of 24.4 points, six assists and 4.7 rebounds per game. From the three-point line, the Golden State Maestro recorded 46.1% accuracy by converting 3.8 of his 8.2 attempts.
