ESPN reported yesterday that Seth Curry’s father, former NBA great Dell Curry,  made it known Sunday night after a visit to Durham earlier in the day that Seth had been offered a scholarship by the Duke Blue Devils and accepted. Curry averaged 20.2 points a game for the Flames this past season, making a name for himself in his own right outside of the shadow of his brother, Stephen.

Because of the transfer rule in college basketball, Seth will sit out the 2009-10 season and be eligible for 2010-11 as a third-year sophomore.

Seth also told ESPN that the opportunity to continue his career at Duke, and get a Duke education were other major factors in the decision.

The media/television exposure could have also been a factor, hmmm?

Perhaps Coach K. will have an opportunity to get back  the Blue Devils back to the Final Four with Curry’s help.
