Can history-making Stephen Curry lead the Warriors to the NBA championship this season?
Stephen Curry created history by breaking Ray Allen's three-point record of 2973. However, the 33-year-old has a shot at another great achievement, which is winning the NBA championship.
The Warriors currently hold a 22-5 record, and sit at the top of the Western Conference. Steph has been playing really well. Others like Jordan Poole, Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green and Gary Payton II have also stepped up whenever the team has needed them to.
The team is doing great at both ends of the floor. Things are going well for the Dubs. And they will only get better after the much-awaited arrival of their beloved Klay Thompson.
He is currently not travelling with the team, and is busy getting ready for a return, which is reported to be next week. His arrival will reunite the 'Splash Bros', who have earlier terrorized defenses with their shooting.

Thompson is undoubtedly a great presence at both ends of the floor. However, the team cannot expect the 31-year-old to fire from Day 1, as he'll be back in action after almost two years.
Klay Thompson has been able to scrimmage for full games, playing for five-to-seven consecutive minutes at a time, per @ShamsCharania.
The Warriors want to continue to ramp him up with even more gameplay in the coming week.

With Stephen Curry playing the way he has been till now, the team has immensely benefitted. If he keeps playing similarly and the team remains healthy till the end of the season, there is no doubt the Warriors will fancy their chances to win the 2021-22 NBA championship.
