Seth Curry has never gotten the publicity of his brother, Steph, the NBA's reigning MVP, but he has finally gotten his shot to shine in the NBA.

The younger Curry signed a two-year deal with the Kings earlier this week, and now, a former coach of his is explaining what type of impact he could have in Sacramento after tearing up NBA summer league in Las Vegas over the past 14 days or so.

Bayhawks head coach Bill Peterson joined Sactown Royalty to discuss Curry's development last season and how he stacks up as an NBA prospect.

This is a guy who spent quite a bit of time under you last season. What went through your mind when you heard the news that the Kings had signed him?

I was really excited for him and he deserves the opportunity. He's definitely an NBA player. He has a unique set of skills and he can really score the basketball in a lot of different ways and a lot of different situations.

He has a reputation as a shooter, but you mentioned he is versatile. So what would you say are his other attributes?

Obviously, he can shoot the ball, but he's also a very good passer. Very good finding the open man and has a very high basketball IQ. And he's very good in clutch situations. He's one of those guys that just has it. I think he made three or four game-winners for us this past year in Eerie. And I told one of the scouts that called me on the phone about him the other day, he's one of those rare guys, he can be terrible for three quarters and just not playing very good, not making a lot of shots, and something comes alive in the fourth quarter, which not many guys can do that. He can make a bunch of shots and make the game-winner.
