Not to quibble but ...
Set to play some pro-am golf in Greensboro: Davidson College alumnus Stephen Curry. (Update: He is, in fact, according to the definition of the word, an alumnus of the college, even though he hasn’t graduated -- yet. An alumnus also can be just a former student. He is that obviously. So much for my silly quibble.)

According to Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, an alumnus is "one who has attended or has graduated from a particular school, college, or university."
Stephan Curry is an alumnus of Davidson College even though he has not graduated (yet?).
Ignore my typo - Stephen Curry.
Indeed. I stand corrected. Apologies.
