Grizzlies sign G Seth Curry
The Memphis Grizzlies signed guard Seth Curry of the NBA Development League's Santa Cruz Warriors, the team announced Tuesday.
Curry (6-1, 180) comes to Memphis after averaging 21.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, 7.8 assists and 1.58 steals on .439 shooting in 12 games for Santa Cruz this season.
The 23-year-old ranks 10th in the D-League in scoring and second in assists per game. He has scored 20 or more points seven times, including a career-high 36 in his D-League debut on Nov. 22 vs. Austin, and has recorded three double-doubles.
Curry went undrafted in the 2013 NBA Draft following his senior season at Duke in which he ranked second in the Atlantic Coast Conference in scoring (team-high 17.5 points) and 3-point field goal percentage (.438) and garnered first team All-ACC and second team All-America honors.
Curry is the younger brother of Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, who set the NBA single-season record for 3-point field goals made (272) last season.
Seth joined Stephen in Golden State after signing as a free agent on Aug. 23 but was waived on Oct. 25 following the preseason.
The duo is the highest-scoring brother tandem in NCAA history, finishing their collegiate careers with a combined 4,736 points (Stephen -- 2,635 points at Davidson; Seth -- 2,101 points at Duke and Liberty).
