What did Steph Curry tell young players about the weakest move?

According to a recent video where Steph Curry is at hi Camp, he was talking to the players about some things related to asking for the ball during a game. He said, “The last thing we can do is try to get open, not get the ball, and then start begging, begging for the ball. I don’t care where you are on the court. Every other decision is the right one — screen away, front cut, back cut. The last thing we can do is beg. It’s the weakest move in basketball.”

Curry was talking about how important off-ball movement is during the game. Not having the ball is also part of the game. He told the campers that they should always be moving and be ready to receive the ball. They should not just stand around and wait for the ball to come to them.

His advice is valuable for any basketball player, regardless of their age or skill level. It is important to remember that there is more to the game than just shooting the ball. Off-ball movement is just as important, and it can help you to be a more effective player.
