Warriors’ Curry honors college coach with award

Bob McKillop had intently watched then-freshman Stephen Curry for only two weeks of individual instruction.

“I told them that he’s going to go down in the annals of Davidson history as one of the greatest,” McKillop said. “It was a two-week process for him to earn that, and then, he continued to earn it. There was never a feeling of entitlement whatsoever. He was on a mission to get better.
