Stephen Curry is still leaving some fans in awe but his former coach Bob McKillop sees nothing new about the Golden State Warriors star.
Every year in Stephen Curry's NBA career has been big in recent times and this season is no different. The two-time NBA scoring champ is once again putting on a show for the Warriors and is now the second top scorer in the league.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr recently admitted that he's “still blown away” by Curry's brilliance. However, Curry's Davidson coach Bob McKillop is not being surprised anymore as he is well aware of what his former star could do with the basketball.

I'd turn to the bench and say, ‘Don't they know that's Steph Curry?' He answered that question so many times. And I see him do things now with the Warriors, and it doesn't surprise me.”
“As much as it doesn't surprise us [me and Kerr], it energizes us,” he added. “It validates, affirms everything we have known about him.”
More importantly, McKillop is certain that Curry is not hitting the ceiling yet and there is more to come.
“I would never prejudge what Stephen Curry can do. The sky is the limit,” the coach predicted. “I don't know how long he can do it, but I wouldn't even venture to guess.”
