My brother is a superstar and my father is an NBA star! He was an undrafted player but played for 12 years and ranked first in the league in three-pointers.
With Jonathan Kuminga completing his contract extension, the Warriors finally completed their corresponding signings before the start of the regular season. Among these new signings, the appearance of a player also made fans very happy. He is Stephen Curry's younger brother Seth Curry. Although Curry's performance throughout his NBA career has been relatively mediocre, it has to be said that he is still amazing. You know, both his father Dell Curry and his brother Stephen Curry are very powerful outside scorers. Carrying the pressure of his brother and father, as an undrafted player, he has played in the NBA for 12 seasons, which is not easy. Let us recall Curry's career and take a look at his inspirational path!
Unfortunately, he lost the draft due to injury and spent three years in the rotation.
As the younger brother of Stephen Curry, Curry has also been receiving systematic basketball training since he was a child. However, compared to his older brother, his talent is more average. Whether it is ball control, organization, or the three-point shooting that the family is best at, he is not as good as his older brother. And since childhood, the exposure of the two brothers has been very different. Dell Curry has always brought Stephen to the world when he was a player, while Curry can only remain unknown in the back.
But even so, little Curry still grew up under the light of his brother and father. In his senior season, he was able to contribute 22.3 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. He was selected to the North Carolina All-American Team, the All-American Team and the SCAA All-American First Team. After entering college, he became the main core of Liberty University in his freshman season, averaging 20.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. He directly won the Big South Division's Best Freshman Award and was selected to the All-NBA Team.
At the time, it seemed that he would definitely be able to enter the NBA, and would most likely be selected in the first round. However, a turning point occurred. After transferring to Duke University, although his performance remained stable, by his senior season, he could even contribute 17.5 points, and his three-point shooting rate remained at an astonishing 43.8%, and he was selected to the All-American Second Team. But unfortunately, due to a right tibial fracture, he was ignored in the 2013 NBA draft and became an undrafted player.
In addition, the NBA at that time had not yet entered the small ball era, so Curry's career was also very bumpy. In the 13-14 and 14-15 seasons, he moved to the Grizzlies, Cavaliers and Kings respectively, but only got 4 opportunities to play in total. It wasn't until he joined the Kings that he got stable playing time, averaging 6.8 points, 1.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game. At the age of 26, he finally entered the rotation.
Show off your skills on the outside and perform at your peak!
In the 16-17 season, the Mavericks gave Curry a contract, and this season was exactly the beginning of his rise to the top. The success of his older brother Stephen with the Warriors made almost all teams begin to pay attention to three-point shooting, and Curry was The Mavericks also gained a lot of tactical status. In the end, he not only became the team's main outside scoring point, but also averaged 12.8 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, and his three-point shooting rate reached an impressive 42.5%.
It was also from this season that he gradually became Seth from what people called Curry's younger brother, and gained everyone's recognition. Although he missed the 2017-18 season due to injuries, after moving to the Trail Blazers in the 18-19 season, he still became an important member of the bench. Especially in the playoffs, he averaged 5.6 points and 1.6 rebounds per game, helping the team reach the Western Conference Finals and joining Stephen Curry's Warriors, which was once rumored to be a good story.
In the 19-20 season, Curry Jr. returned to the Mavericks. He has maintained a very good condition this year. Even though he is 30 years old, he can still contribute 12.4 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists. Of course, Curry's peak moment was with the 76ers. In the 21-22 season, he averaged 15 points, 3.4 rebounds and 4 assists per game, becoming the main force in the team's backcourt.
What’s even more remarkable is that from the 15-16 season until the 22-23 season, his three-point shooting percentage has never been lower than 40%. This is a very rare performance in the league, and even his brother is inferior. Although he later moved to the Nets and Mavericks, no matter which team he was on, he was a player that the team valued very much. Whether on the bench or in the starting lineup, he could provide a stable three-point output from the outside.
reunited with his brother and competed for the championship.
Last season, although he was traded to the Hornets and the team was in a period of decline, once he got the opportunity to play, Curry was still able to make great contributions. He averaged 6.5 points and 1.7 rebounds per game, and his three-point shooting percentage reached 45.6%, which ranked first in the league. It is precisely for this reason that the Warriors will give him a contract in the offseason. After all, he can still provide such a stable performance at the age of 35. This is what impresses the team.
Of course, more importantly, he reunited with his brother Stephen here. Since he is older than Curry, although the two brothers regard basketball as a career, they have never been able to play for the same team. This reunion also gave the brothers an opportunity to join forces. Of course, this time Curry joined the Warriors with only one goal, which is to win the championship with his brother.
