Who is Seth Curry? How good of a shooter is he? Meet Golden State Warriors’s new signing
The Golden State Warriors have finally completed a long-anticipated family reunion on their roster, officially signing veteran guard Seth Curry for the remainder of the season. The move brings the Curry brothers—Stephen and Seth—under one NBA roof for the first time in the franchise’s modern era, marking a milestone that has been years in the making.
Seth, now entering his 12th NBA season, began the year with the Warriors during training camp but was released before the season tipped off. Golden State’s financial limitations forced the team to start the year with only 14 active players, a maneuver designed to eventually clear the prorated space required to add Seth to the 15th roster spot once conditions allowed. The Warriors, who are currently hard-capped at the league’s restrictive second apron, had little choice but to delay the reunion until their budget aligned with league rules.
The Warriors’ strategy paid off this week as they officially welcomed Seth back into the fold. But despite the emotional significance of the signing, fans hoping to see an immediate Curry brothers backcourt pairing will need to wait a little longer. Stephen Curry, the team’s leading scorer at 27.9 points per game, is currently sidelined with a left quad strain and will be re-evaluated next week before returning to action. His absence delays what could become one of the most heartwarming—and potentially lethal—familial duos in the NBA.
Seth’s journey back to Golden State is marked by intentional independence. Though he started his professional path with the Warriors’ G League affiliate in Santa Cruz, he spent the majority of his career carving out his own legacy across 10 NBA teams. He has long emphasized his desire to succeed outside Stephen’s shadow, a goal he has accomplished with remarkable shooting efficiency. Over the years, Seth has quietly become one of the most reliable perimeter threats in league history, amassing 945 career three-pointers at a blistering 43.3% accuracy—a mark that ranks seventh all-time. Last season alone, he led the entire NBA with a 45.6% three-point shooting percentage.
Still, timing and maturity have a way of reshaping priorities. After more than a decade of carving his own lane, Seth decided during the offseason that the opportunity to finally share the floor with his older brother had arrived at the right moment in his career. Stephen had long expressed his desire to one day suit up alongside his brother, and Golden State’s front office was equally intent on making the reunion happen despite salary-cap hurdles.
With Seth now officially on board, the Warriors will soon enter a new chapter—one that blends sentimental value with strategic advantage. The team, currently battling through an up-and-down season, gains an elite shooter, a poised veteran presence, and a player whose skillset fits naturally within their system of spacing and ball movement.
Golden State’s corresponding roster move involved clearing space to make the signing possible, but the organization has made clear that adding Seth was a priority worth accommodating. As the Warriors await Stephen Curry’s return, the prospect of watching the Curry brothers share the floor as teammates—rather than offseason workout partners—adds a new layer of intrigue to the team’s season.
If all goes as planned, the NBA could soon witness one of the league’s most anticipated family pairings finally take center stage at Chase Center.
