Strengths: Huge at 290 he fills the lane and knows how to use his body runs the floor well
though not a speedster .... Is the most mobile, and agile player his size that I
have just about ever seen .... Physical inside player draws contact and gets to
the free throw line .... Good hands catches most passes thrown into post after
getting it he can power the ball to the basket or use his variety of post moves
... Explosive leaper gets off the floor quickly and can dunk with authority ....
Unlike many young power players Curry doesn't struggle from the free throw line
... Due to his strength and surprisingly quick jumping ability Curry can rebound
with the best of them .... Limitless potential the only thing that could stop
Curry from achieving star status is him...
Weakness: Height although he is listed at 6-11 he looks about 6-10 so one has to wonder
will he continue to grow and what position will he play power forward or center
... Has not always been in the best of shape one has to wonder if he has the
drive to keep himself in shape... Must continue to watch his weight ( Curry did
lose 30 pounds this season) as he has a tendency to wavier a few pounds during
the season .... Looks lost when he is 14 feet from the basket needs to develop
some moves facing the basket... Has had some games where he has looked sluggish
and uninterested in the action although to his credit this usually didn't happen
all that often but has happened enough to worry some scouts ...
