A native of Charlotte, North Carolina, Curry played collegiately for one year at Liberty University before transferring to Duke.

His senior year, Curry averaged 22.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 5.0 assists while shooting 52 percent from the field. At the end of the season, he earned all-conference, all-state, and first team SAA All-American accolades.
