The players were asked whether they think Steph belongs in the top five all-time category. Taylen Kinney agreed, but Amari Evans wasn't convinced. Instead, he considers Steph a top 7 player.

Asher Elson also didn't place Steph in his top five, but according to him, he's definitely the No. 1 PG of all time. When asked who his top five lists are, he said:

"Lebron, Jordan, KD, Kobe and Haliburton."

Five of the guys didn't see Steph as a top-five player of all time, while three, including Taylen Kinney, said he deserves a spot on the list.
