“Some things are worth the wait! #30 up in the rafters looks right! Humbled and blessed to be up there with the @DavidsonWildcat legends. #TCC forever,” tweeted Curry, 34. “ALWAYS a great day to be a Wildcat!”

“This is awesome, man,” Dell Curry said. “This is good stuff here. Coach, this might be the best day ever to be a Wildcat!”
While at the North Carolina school, Curry was instrumental in Davidson’s “Cinderella Story” run into the Elite Eight of the 2008 NCAA Tournament.
He left to join the Warriors in 2009.
