A'ja Wilson averaging 26.9 points reminded Jeff Teague of the time when Curry carried his team. On the 'Club 520 Podcast', the former NBA player compared Wilson's quest for the three-peat to Steph Curry's and the Warriors' championship run in 2022.

"Shout out to A'ja Wilson, craziest season ever… She’s on that like last time Steph won that chip. He was the marquee, had help but he was that. I think this year she might really surprise in the playoffs. I know there’s a lot of good teams but when she is locked in, bro, ain’t much you can do with her," he said.
