Kendrick Perkins stirs pot on potential Warriors Stephen Curry-LeBron James team-up
“If things don’t go as planned [with the Lakers, Warriors, Suns this upcoming season]… I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a reunion with Steph Curry and [Kevin Durant] or LeBron James and Steph actually making it happen.” – Kendrick Perkins 👀
“You know what I’ve witnessed watching this Olympics team this summer,” asked Kendrick Perkins on ESPN’s First Take. “It’s watching guys develop relationships. And what happens is when guys are over there in Paris, guys were breaking bread together. Guys were having conversations together, and I’m gonna say this: This next NBA season is going to be interesting.
“Because if things don’t go as planned with the Los Angeles Lakers, if things don’t go as planned with the Golden State Warriors, or things don’t go as planned with the Phoenix Suns – all of them are in the same conference. I’m looking at it and I’m saying to myself, after this NBA season, we might see some things. We might see some moving parts. And I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a reunion with Steph Curry and K.D. or LeBron James and Steph actually making it happen, or we see Kevin Durant go to Minnesota with Anthony Edwards.

“… I would not be surprised if we see LeBron James and Steph Curry, before the end of LeBron’s career, share the floor together.”
Could LeBron James and Stephen Curry form a Warriors dream team?
It’s no secret that James and Curry loved playing together while playing for Team USA in the 2024 Olympics. However, a possible team-up would break the NBA if the two kids from Akron shared the floor. Granted, the Warriors have explored acquiring James before. But in the end, James put the kibosh on going to Golden State, preferring to stay in Los Angeles.
