View draft prospect Stephen Curry

Club Pro Sean M. Higgins on Curry: Stephen Curry is the most skilled draft prospect this year. I love watching him play! He comes from a good lineage of basketball, the same simular lines of Kobe Bryant. What Curry has to do in order to reach NBA star status is to get stronger, not bigger, but stronger. The NBA is rigorous and the travel and amount of games will take it's toll on Curry's body, if he doesn't get stronger. Most of his strength will come with age and maturity. Personnally, I feel he has the most upside in the draft. he's a prolific scorer and pure shooter, which has become a lost art in today's game (pure shooting).
