Seth Curry is returning to the Hornets on a one-year deal, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN tweets. The signing is official, according to a Hornets press release.
Curry, who turns 34 next month, was waived by Charlotte last month before his $4M salary for next season became guaranteed. It was noted at that time both sides were interested in exploring another contract. He’ll provide depth at the shooting guard spot.
The younger brother of Stephen Curry, Seth actually has a better career three-point percentage (43.1) than his superstar sibling (42.6). However, the 33-year-old, who obviously isn’t Steph’s equal as a playmaker or all-around scorer, is coming off a down year in 2023-24. He appeared in a total of 44 games for the Mavericks and Hornets, averaging just 5.1 points per game on .392/.352/.903 shooting.
The younger Curry, who was sent from Dallas to Charlotte in February as part of the trade package for P.J. Washington, was able to suit up for just eight games down the stretch for his hometown Hornets, as his season ended early due to a sprained ankle.
