Stephen Curry is an NBA champion and a star who’s changed the game with his boundless shooting ability, headed to his third straight Finals.
Curry wasn’t always the Baby-Faced Assassin, though. But his college coach, Bob McKillop, saw star potential in him during his first game at Davidson.
A year-and-a-half before, in summer 2005, he’d watched Curry play in an AAU game in Las Vegas. It was not a good performance.
“Steph’s game was like the JV game, and I’m there watching, and he has nine turnovers. Nine! I’m ducking his passes,” McKillop told the San Jose Mercury-Tribune this week.
