The top 10 neighbors for Stephen Curry form a tight, homogeneous cluster — seven of the ten are fellow athletes, with the remaining three split across a basketball website, a TV show, and a TV channel. Scores span only 0.94 to 0.98, a narrow band that defines the flat shape.
Kevin Durant leads at 0.98, followed closely by Ballislife.com at 0.98 — the lone non-athlete in the upper tier, a basketball-focused website whose audience composition tracks nearly identically to Durant's. Vince Carter (0.96), NBA on TNT (0.96), and Jamal Crawford (0.96) round out the top five, all within two hundredths of each other. Russell Westbrook (0.95), Damian Lillard (0.95), and Dwight Howard (0.95) follow, then Blake Griffin (0.94) and NBA on ESPN (0.94) close the set. The two media properties — a TV show and a TV channel, both NBA broadcast vehicles — sit comfortably inside the same band as the athletes rather than pulling the shape in a different direction.
What's notable is the absence of any musicians, comedians, or cross-category figures in the top 10; the neighbor set is almost entirely basketball athletes and NBA media, with no drift toward entertainment or lifestyle. The flat shape here signals a highly consolidated audience: the people who follow Stephen Curry look, in composition, almost exactly like the people who follow every other prominent NBA player and NBA broadcast property.
