Who Is Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, The Former Point Guard Who Phil Jackson Just Compared To Steph Curry?

You may know by now that Phil Jackson made a pretty clumsy comparison on Sunday between Stephen Curry and Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, the former Nuggets, Kings and Grizzlies guard from the 1990s. Here it is in case you missed it:

Never seen anything like SCurry? Remind you of Chris Jackson/ Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, who had a short but brilliant run in NBA?

The internet responded by slapping Jackson like Moe Howard, noting that Abdul-Rauf never made an All-Star team and had a career average of 14.6 points per game. Curry? 22.1 career — 30.7 this season.
