Dell Curry is a former NBA Sixth Man of the Year and as a father he’ll be in rarified air starting tonight as he’s the first dad in NBA history to have two sons playing on different teams playing against each other in a conference final.
Dell Curry was a good NBA player. Not a star like son Steph, but a solid NBA player who was a good three point shooter back before the three point shot ruled the NBA game and how it is played today.
Anyone who knows anything about the current NBA knows of Steph Curry and his impact on the game. Kevin Durant is not the soul of the Warrior iconic dynasty…no way. He’s just a visitor who will reap some of the historic glory years from now.
Steph Curry along with fellow Splash Brother Klay is the dude who’s made this what it is in Oakland along with good ownership, great general managing, and a good coach.
Seth Curry by contrast has been an NBA journeyman so far in his NBA career. This year he averaged 18.9 minutes a game, 9 points a game and shot 45% from beyond the arc.
I wonder how Dell and his wife Sonya will handle this?
I would think it would be tough because I’m sure CJ McCollum’s father will be giving Dell Curry the evil eye if he sees Dell now cheering for the Warriors in the conference finals.
This will be tough for the Curry family, but what a nice dilemma to have with two sons both playing in the Western Conference Finals for two wonderful coaches like Terry Stotts and Steve Kerr.
I’m pulling for the Portland Trailblazers…so in this series I’m in the Seth Curry camp.
Totally with you on this one-supporting the Blazers although tonight was not good….
Love,
Jan
