Now that Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has won his fourth championship and earned the Bill Russell NBA Finals MVP Trophy for the first time, how high has he climbed in the all-time rankings of NBA point guards?

The long-awaited Finals MVP award filled the only hole remaining on Curry's résumé. He had already won a pair of regular-season MVPs, appeared on eight All-NBA teams (four of them first-team nods) and become the NBA's all-time leader in 3-pointers earlier this season.

When ESPN's all-time NBArank put Curry fourth among point guards in 2016, during the midst of the season he earned MVP unanimously for helping the Warriors win a record 73 games, his placement ahead of Isiah Thomas was controversial.

Given everything Curry has accomplished since then, that's no longer the case. When we recently ranked the NBA's list of the top 76 players in league history, Curry finished third among point guards behind Magic Johnson and Oscar Robertson.

With another title run in the books, it's time to revisit where Curry ranks all time at his position.
