For Seth Curry, son of a former Hornets sharpshooter, nothing would be better than to stay in Charlotte and play for the hometown Bobcats.

"It's my home," Curry said. "This is where I grew up. I would love to come back here and play."

Although his preference is obvious, there is no certainty Curry will end up with the Bobcats, who will become the Hornets again in 2014-15.

Curry is set to workout for the Bobcats in August, after passing up their Summer League offer and missing draft workouts because of a stress fracture in his right shin that required surgery. He already has training camp invites from the Wolves, Spurs and Warriors.

Two of those possible suitors have a distinct Curry flavor. Curry's father, Dell, played for the Hornets and brother, Stephen, is a current member of the Warriors. And if you know of the Curry family, you know they can shoot the ball.

Curry, who's working out at Accelerate Basketball Training, showcased that Wednesday as he stood at the 3-point line and knocked down shots with ease.

Only moments earlier, Curry did not strike as anything remarkable as he went through agility and ballhandling drills in a small gym down the road. He moved the ball with skill but looked to be of average height and build.

Then Curry stepped on a basketball court and his skillset became obvious. The ability to shoot translates at any level, and Curry is trying to prove that his 17.5 points and 43.8 percent 3-point shooting at Duke can equal success in the NBA.

Charlotte certainly could use someone who plays Curry's brand of basketball. The Bobcats shot 33.5 percent from the 3-point line as a team, and Ben Gordon was the only full-time player to average better than 35 percent, at 38.7 percent.

Gerald Henderson, also a former Duke player, is more of a slasher and midrange shooter. He attempted only 102 3-point shots in his first three NBA seasons combined. While he nearly matched that total with 100 attempts in 2012-13, he only shot 33.0 percent from 3, which is below average for a starting NBA shooting guard.

"They have a lot of guys who can slash and create," Curry said of the Bobcats. "They have a few shooters, guys who can not down shots consistently, but I think they need more shooters. I can fill that role and be a guard who comes off the bench and scores."

Curry created offense in his senior season at Duke with a shin injury so serious he even considered redshirting, something he called a "last resort." Coach Mike Krzyzewski allowed Curry to miss practices so he would be fresh for games. It worked. Curry played out a successful senior season that ended with an Elite Eight loss to Louisville.

Curry spent more time off the ball as a senior because of his shin injury and the emergence of Duke guard Quinn Cook as a playmaker. The move took pressure off Curry's leg and allowed him to focus more on scoring. But it also brought questions about Curry's ability to play both guard positions, the same questions his brother Stephen faced when he entered the NBA out of Davidson in 2009.

"Just the opportunity to show that I can handle the ball full time and play the point guard position," Curry said. "I know I can I just have to get the opportunity to get out there and show it."

Before Curry went unpicked in the 2013 NBA Draft, his brother Stephen expressed similar confidence.

"Whether he gets drafted or not, a team will be making a great decision by bringing him into camp," Stephen said. "The same questions that were brought up about my game and how it transitions to the NBA, he's going through that same criticism. But I think the way he shoots the ball and the way he can score will be a high value for a team."

Provided with the opportunity, Curry can prove his brother right, one 3-pointer at a time.
