The NBA has a rich history of well-known duos in the sport.
Some remember the duo Karl Malone and John Stockton from their days with the Utah Jazz.
Others remember Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant.
However, who can forget the duo of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen in Chicago?
Although these duos are some of the best of their time, Stephen A. Smith has named his best duo for 2022.
So who is the best duo of 2022, according to Smith?
Smith names Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson best duo
While on ESPN, Smith revealed his best NBA duo.
With the conversation turning to Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, he launched into a rant about his choice.
That pick was Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.

He said Curry was the “best shooter God ever created” during the ESPN segment.
While Tatum and Brown had a historic opener as they both scored 35 points apiece, that wasn’t enough to convince Smith.
For him, it’s all about the Golden State Warriors duo, who just won an NBA championship.
He points to the numbers and greatness of Curry, who led the Warriors to four NBA titles.
Curry and Thompson being teammates since 2011, the Warriors have had many good seasons with them.
That bond helped lead the Warriors to NBA success, which began in 2015.
Their success cannot be surpassed by any other NBA duo currently playing in the NBA.
With that, they get Smith’s blessing as the best duo in the NBA today.
