Missing Steph Curry? Seth Curry's Arrival Could Be Exactly What the Warriors Need!
It's no secret that the Golden State Warriors are facing some offensive challenges without their star player, Steph Curry. But there's a glimmer of hope: his brother, Seth Curry, has just signed with the team, and he could be the perfect remedy to their shooting woes.
The Warriors officially welcomed Seth Curry back on a one-year contract, adding him to the roster as the 15th player. Initially waived before the season for financial reasons, the team is now ready to benefit from his skills.
Curry himself knows exactly what he brings to the table. He told reporters, "I think everyone around the league knows what I bring to the table as far as my game... just being able to spread the floor, make shots – just create offense." He also feels his ability to handle the ball in pick-and-rolls and dribble handoffs is underrated, creating opportunities for the offense.
Coach Steve Kerr confirmed that Curry will be active for his season debut. This comes at a crucial time, especially considering the team's recent struggles. In a recent game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Warriors' shooting was noticeably off, hitting only 40.9% of their shots from the field and a mere 25.5% from beyond the arc. The team's poor shooting performance was evident as they missed 20 of their first 21 three-point attempts.
While the Warriors lead the NBA in 3-pointers made per game, their accuracy is only average. They rank 14th in 3-point percentage, 19th in effective field goal percentage, and 16th in true shooting percentage. In fact, they are a below-average shooting team overall, ranking 24th in field goal percentage.
This is where Seth Curry's expertise comes into play. He's coming off a season where he led the NBA in 3-point percentage at 45.6%. His career 3-point percentage is 43.3%, a hair above his brother Steph's 42.3%.
But here's where it gets controversial... Steph has missed several games and still leads the team in 3-point attempts. Other key players like Buddy Hield and Draymond Green are struggling with their shots. Seth's arrival is a much-needed boost.
Coach Kerr is excited to have Seth on board, praising his shooting ability and solid ball-handling skills. Seth has been staying ready, focusing on his physical condition and keeping up with the team's progress.
Seth's return adds depth to the Warriors' guard rotation. He's ready to contribute, whether it's in his first game or later in the season. He's not just another name; he's a sharpshooter who can significantly impact the team's performance.
And this is the part most people miss... Seth Curry's addition could add to the legendary status of the Curry family in basketball history.
