Seth Curry believes he's a better shooter than brother Steph

Stephen Curry is widely praised as perhaps the best shooter in all of basketball. Then again, he might not even be the best shooter in his own family, at least according to his younger brother, Seth.

During a Tuesday appearance on Fox Sports 1's "Undisputed," the Dallas Mavericks guard was asked whether he feels he's better shooting the rock than the reigning back-to-back league Most Valuable Player.

"I think so," Seth responded.

Seth can make a legitimate argument considering how well he performed during the 2016-17 campaign, as his shooting numbers across the board were either stronger or on par with Steph's.

This past regular season marked the first time Seth maintained a consistent role on an NBA squad, though, with Steph's elite marksmanship has been on display for quite some time now.
