ESPN's Stephen A. Smith cited an authoritative source regarding a discussion over the best point guard in NBA history.
During First Take on Wednesday, Smith read a message from Hall of Famer Michael Jordan in which MJ argued in favor of putting Los Angeles Lakers legend Magic Johnson ahead of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry.
Jordan wrote to Smith early Wednesday morning to say Johnson "is easily the best point guard of all time" and that Curry "is very close but not in front of Magic." Jordan cited Johnson's five NBA titles along with his 138 career triple-doubles, the latter of which are the third-most ever.
