Curry was also on the Charlotte Christian academic honor roll all four years. College career Liberty After high school, Curry chose to attend Liberty University.

He was, however, later waived by Golden State on October 25, 2013, after appearing in six preseason games. On November 1, 2013, Curry was acquired by the Santa Cruz Warriors of the NBA Development League as an affiliate player.

Cleveland Cavaliers (2014) On March 21, 2014, Curry signed a 10-day contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers. On the next day, he appeared in his second NBA game, recording three points in nine minutes of action against the Houston Rockets. The Cavaliers decided not to offer Curry a second 10-day contract, and he returned to Santa Cruz the following day. Curry finished the 2013–14 NBA D-League season with averages of 19.7 points, 3.1 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.4 steals in 38 games. During his time at Santa Cruz, Curry played in the back court with Mychel Thompson.

Erie BayHawks (2014–2015) In July 2014, Curry joined the Orlando Magic for the Orlando Summer League and the Phoenix Suns for the Las Vegas Summer League. On September 29, 2014, he signed with the Magic. On October 7, 2014, Curry's D-League rights were acquired by the Magic's affiliated team, the Erie BayHawks, in a trade with the Santa Cruz Warriors. This was done in preparation for Curry returning to the D-League following training camp, as the Magic were now able to send him to their affiliated team instead of Curry returning to Santa Cruz. As anticipated the Magic waived Curry at the conclusion of training camp on October 25, and five days later he was acquired by the Erie BayHawks for the start of D-League training camp.

Considered a "shooting guard trapped in a point guard's body", Curry's three-point shooting was a key reason the Kings signed him, as outside shooting had long been the Kings' Achilles heel.

On November 28, he scored 9 points on 3-of-4 shooting and 3-of-3 from three-point range in a loss to the Golden State Warriors.
