Warriors Release Veteran Guard Seth Curry
The Golden State Warriors have officially waived veteran guard Seth Curry ahead of the 2023 NBA regular season. This decision was made on a Saturday and marks a significant moment for the player, who is the younger brother of NBA superstar and four-time champion Steph Curry.
Seth Curry’s Contract and Performance
Prior to his release, Seth Curry signed a one-year contract with the Warriors in late September. However, he did not participate in any pre-season games with the team. The 11-year veteran had spent last season with the Charlotte Hornets, where he averaged 6.5 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 0.9 assists.
- Field Goal Percentage: 47.8%
- Three-Point Percentage: 45.6% (league-high)
- Three-Point Attempts: 2.7 per game
Seth Curry has excelled in his shooting, with a career three-point field goal percentage of 43.3%, taking four attempts per game. His impact as a sharpshooter has been a significant aspect of his career.
Future Prospects for the Warriors
NBA insider Marc Stein reports that the expectation is for the Warriors to potentially re-sign Curry in November. This will depend on the team achieving sufficient financial flexibility to bring him back into the fold.
Additional Roster Changes
In addition to Seth Curry’s release, the Warriors waived guard LJ Cryer, an undrafted free agent. Cryer averaged five points over five pre-season games.
The current roster for the Golden State Warriors is now comprised of 17 players as they prepare for the upcoming season.
