You literally gave one of the best examples of somebody who basically willed themselves into the NBA and did not win the genetic lottery.

Steph Curry is 6'2".  Only 27 NBA players out of 450 total players are 6'2" or smaller.  Go watch a local DMV HS game with PVI, Gonzaga, Sidwell...90% of the starting five for those teams is over 6'2".

A little note on his practice routine:

Stephen Curry, a Golden State Warriors player, practices shooting hundreds of shots every day. In the season, he typically takes around 300 shots after each practice. During the offseason, he increases his practice to over 500 shots per day. [/quote]
You can't be this delusional.

Steph Curry has a gift everyone else doesn't have. Otherwise, the 6'4 HS basketball player would just shoot a couple hundred extra shots per day and make 100s of millions of dollars.

You're also missing the fact the Steph has elite level conditioning and can outrun almost all NBA players. He also can see the floor and knows how to get open which is what makes him so good.

And BTW, 6'2 is in the 95 percentile for height. So while he's a short NBA player, he's way taller than the average male. [/quote]

Using Steph Curry as an example of someone who didn’t win the genetic lottery is pretty funny.   I imagine Dell and Seth would be surprised by that idea.    [/quote]

The reality is 99.9% of kids no matter how much they may claim to love basketball won’t shoot 300 shots every day after practice nor 500 shots every day in the offseason.

Not sure why this is hard to understand.[/quote]
