NBA Roundtable: Comparing NBA Players To Star Wars Characters

4. Han Solo

Jason Coldiron – Steph Curry. Like Solo (the rebel bounty-hunter turned hero who does things his own way), Curry is a rebel in the modern game. His three-point frenzy is driving old-schoolers crazy while inciting the fervor of youth everywhere. His style is surely being copied and trickling down to the next generation of gunslingers, who will arrive in the NBA with range that hasn’t been seen yet.

Jay Rosales – If you’re in the camp that believes Han is the hero, then Steph Curry fits the mold. If you’re in the camp that believes Han is a bit of a womanizer, then Curry ended up with the girl – MVP & Championship.

Evan Caulfield – Russell Westbrook. The OKC point guard shares the same flashy style and charisma as Han Solo, both on and off the court. Another main similarity is that both are other worldly when it comes to a particular skill, with Han being the fastest gunslinger in the galaxy and Westbrook being arguably the best athlete in the league.
