((HT: CBSSports/Parrish))Just a few hours after DraftExpress.com's Jonathan Givony reported that Stephen Curry -- a likely lottery pick -- will soon announce his decision to enter the NBA Draft, Davidson coach Bob McKillop, perhaps in response, told the Associated Press that his star guard is still undecided.
So that's where we're at right now.
Givony says Curry will be in.
McKillop says the future remains unknown.

McKillop says the future remains unknown.
Either way, I'll say this: I have no idea who is sourcing this story for Givony, but I'm 99 percent sure it comes from the NBA side, and NBA people are typically the most plugged in on who is coming and going, the college coaches often the last to know. It's kind of like coaching searches in that the people getting left are usually a step behind the folks on the other side, because coaches (and in this case, prospects) almost always tell the people associated with their futures that they're coming before they tell the people they're leaving that they're leaving.
Does that make sense?
Bottom line, Curry is "officially" still undecided, sure.
But Givony reporting it's done is probably a good sign that it's done.
Which means the Southern Conference will likely need a new star next season.

nockerraWhy Curry won't leave early. He will never again be in a situation where he is so loved as he is now at Davidson. He could leave a legacy of being the all time leading scorer if he has an exceptional year, and second to Maravich with a decent year. His mother will never again be able to cheer for him (as a pro)the way she does now. Being a legend in the Charlotte area he can write his own ticket with a number of corporations even if his pro career does not pan out. He can graduate on time from one of the best colleges in America, and enjoy his friends (the ones who will be there the rest of his life) for another full year. Depending on what Davidson has coming in this year, could make some noise again in the NCAA's.The only upside to going pro is money. I think his parents are wise enough (and wealthy enough) to encourage him to be a kid and enjoy one more year of freedom.
