Every March, Steph Curry remembers.

And sometimes, during March Madness, he has a strong sense of déjà vu.

Such is the case this year, Curry said Friday night, as he watches N.C. State’s unlikely run in the NCAA Tournament — one that he is particularly fond of because of a family connection he has with the current N.C. State team.

Much like the 2008 Davidson team that saw Curry emerge as a national star while leading the Wildcats to the Elite Eight and within an eyelash of the Final Four, the Wolfpack have won three consecutive games as a double-digit seed to make it to the Elite Eight of the 2024 version of March Madness.
