Darius Garland Has Stephen Curry’s Attention

Darius Garland is coming off a terrific season at just 21-years-old and the young Cleveland Cavaliers point guard has drawn praise from a bunch of All-Stars around the league. 

On a recent episode of “The Bill Simmons Podcast,” ESPN’s Zach Lowe and NBA reporter Jackie MacMullan were talking about the Cavaliers for the 2021-22 season, and MacMullan revealed that Stephen Curry is a huge fan of Darius Garland. 

“I talked to Steph Curry a couple of weeks ago and I was asking him about young players that he may have reached out to and guess who he said: Darius Garland,” MacMullan said. “He loves Darius Garland – a lot. A lot, a lot, a lot. He thinks that kid is going to be a flat-out star.”

Coming from one of the best scorers and best overall talents in the league, this is very high praise for Garland heading into his third season in the NBA.
