ROEBUCK — “You never know in this league,” said Seth Curry at the 2023 BMW Charity Pro-Am on Friday. More than most NBA players, the Charlotte native knows exactly what that statement means. It’s one way to encapsulate his entire basketball career.

“It’s still early on in the summer. The NBA Finals are still going on right now, so we’re still getting a gauge of the market and everything that’s happening with free agency,” he said. “Towards the end of June, I’ll have a clearer picture of the options I’m going to have.”

Despite his cautious approach, Curry didn’t shy away from expressing love for his father’s former team, “I’ve always…
