Hoops ace is a dream team star

Nov 30 2008 Gordon Waddell

NO story impressed me more last week than that of American basketball star Stephen Curry.

The Davidson University ace was netting 30 points a game so a coach put two men on him to stop him scoring.

Most ego-fuelled hoops stars would try to prove their credentials by taking them on.

Curry? He just stood in the corner of the court. He didn't get a point and missed out on being the nation's top scorer.

But his mates played four v three and won by 30 points. Now THAT'S a team player.
