Stephen Curry recently announced the return of the first-of-its-kind platform, which helps underestimated three-star prospects advance and showcase their game. An underrated player for much of his career, Curry founded the tour after recognizing his former player rating would preclude him from his own high school camp, the annual SC30 Select Camp.
