cause why not?
Could Curry play in Charlotte?

Still, Curry isn't closing any doors. The Charlotte Hornets already have a very good point guard in Kemba Walker, who is signed through 2019, but Curry could certainly play shooting guard for the Hornets like he did for the majority of his career at Davidson.

Curry still owns a house in the Charlotte area and his parents live in the city. Father Dell is a former Hornets star who works for the team as a broadcaster, but he largely stays out of his children's decision-making processes.

I asked Steph point-blank if he would consider going to Charlotte in the summer of 2017.

He then went on to imply that at an unspecified point earlier in his career a "Steph in Charlotte" scenario might have been more possible, saying "obviously I had a strong tie to Charlotte and would have loved to play there. I'm very comfortable in that city. It's hard to say exactly what the situation will be this summer."

It all depends on Curry. If he wanted to come here, and was adamant, I'm sure GSW would work a sign and trade for Kemba/parts.

Dream scenario. I'm not getting my hopes up but it goes without saying I'd do anything to get him here.

He'd be ok backing up Kemba I guess.

I do find it kinda funny that Fowler implies that Steph would have to change positions here because of Kemba.

Common guys hes not leaving Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson for Batum and Zeller. I do expect Curry to eventually come to Charlotte and probably end his career there but not for a least a few more years. GSW just won a championship and set a NBA all time record for wins in a season the next year, hes not going anywhere anytime soon. Doesnt really help that our best player plays the same position either.
