Yeah, he's talked about how much Steph's tips helped his shooting.
Donte and Curry apparently got close during his year at GS. According to
this article in The Athletic from a few months ago it was not just tips on shooting. When several teams were showing interest (including Minnesota--ouch) he called Curry who told him the Knicks would be a quality fit. DDV said, "....to have somebody of that stature to almost voice the opinion that I’m thinking — it makes you feel good about the decision you’re making…..He reinforced what I was thinking about New York.”
On shooting Donte said, “I used to think feet squared, shoulders squared, release and everything had to be aligned and everything,” DiVincenzo said. “And I get he’s almost an anomaly. But what’s so much different is as long as his shoulders are good, he doesn’t care about anything else.”
