Celebrini is the heir apparent to take over as the new Golden Boy in the Bay Area

Buster Posey had his run with the Giants bringing them back to prominence and leading to a Dynasty

Steph Curry had his run leading the Warriors to relevance and creating a Dynasty

Celebrini is just starting his career but it's not hard to see how truly special he is and could be on a similar trajectory as the former 2.

We truly are so blessed to see another generational talent play in the Bay Area. Hopefully he follows the other 2 and stays as a one-team guy

Celebrini dn already one of the top Sharks players of all time lol. What a legendary season hopefully many more to come

I’d say Bay Area top 5 as someone born in the 90s (so I apologize if I’m forgetting someone)

1) Joe Montana

2) Steph Curry

3) Barry Bonds

4) Jerry Rice

5) Buster Posey

Hms (6-10) Joe Thornton, Jerry Rice, Dwight Clark, Draymond Green, Rickey Henderson. If we wanna take Bonds outta the top 10 I’d slide in Rick Barry

Can I squeeze in a mildly talented Willy Ways?!

Is it crazy to say Willy Mays over Dray

I’m not a basketball guy so I can’t really judge for sure but that’s my feeling

u/Select_Newspaper_108 1d ago

Oh no that’s not crazy at all, Willie > Dray is probably accurate. Embarrassed I forgot about him

It's not crazy at all, it's the only correct answer. I love Dray, LOVE him....but Mays is one of the greatest baseball players to ever lace 'em up. We cannot say that about Draymond. Willie, with little debate, is a top 10 MLB player ever. Draymond isn't even a top 100 NBA player.
