Basketball trainer Turner making name for himself

It was June of 2013 in Charlotte, N.C., when trainers at a Stephen Curry basketball camp noticed a 10-year-old named Danny Gerber.

They noted the San Francisco lad’s footwork, fundamentals and shooting form. They asked where he learned it all.

With that one inquiry, the trajectory of Packie Turner’s life and career went unexpectedly and organically soaring.

Turner, a former do-everything guard at Holy Names University, had been tutoring Gerber and others like him the previous year.

Curry’s people eventually contacted Turner and in 2015 — during the Warriors first championship season — Turner was training Curry himself.

“Crazy, right?” Turner said.
