Stephen Curry is providing guidance on and off the court to top prospect Scoot Henderson ahead of the 2023 NBA Draft.

Curry's company, SC30 Inc., is giving Henderson and his younger sister, Georgia State commit Crystal "Moochie" Henderson, networking opportunities and access to his strength and conditioning team and shooting coaches, according to Janie McCauley of the Associated Press.

"Just getting this early training and early knowledge from Steph mentoring me and the people around him, it's a blessing," Scoot said. "Me just turning 19, just getting that knowledge early, it's really cool."

"They've developed a perspective on the blessings from the game of basketball and the doors that it's opened and the platform that you're given," Curry said. "The resources you have access to can all lead to a sense of purpose outside of just putting the ball in the basket.

"They're obviously wise beyond their years on that front and understanding that you can do both."

Scoot spent the 2022-23 season playing for the G League Ignite, averaging 16.5 points, 6.5 assists, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in 19 games. He's projected to be a top-three pick in the draft.
